i looked at them out of curiosity, so that was satisfying.
otherwise, they seem to do a good job of summing up what
swears is all about.

Sorry. These are all by a guy called
Peter Halley.

My friend at work said that no one would take these
paintings seriously if an unknown had made them.
Just a little experiment.
I think one of his paintings has sold for $2million or
something.

I just couldn't take falito's respect on false pretenses!
I was hoping everybody would hate them, and I could go
"Shows what you know about art!"

but you still can do that, because falito and recycle have
proved your colleague wrong then, no?

unless your colleague was in fact you, ofcourse.

dont know what try to say swears.

-first i thought you have made it with paint,and i do a
remix.
my words of respect was about you and not the art,hoping
you dont take my remix as a bad joke.

art is a business. it's all about marketing. any old shite
can become valuable if it's marketed properly.

Lots of modern art is crap. I agree. Especially the stuff
made for rich debutantes. What would Mark Ryden and that ilk
be defined as? I like hsi stuff very much. I also like some
modern art too. But the stuff you posted is pretty boring.

it is rubbish (imho), and a game of fashion. maybe it looks
good, but it's generic and boring and unengaging. i'd
rather look at a cloud, a leaf, or a bug for a more
interesting design.

having been trained as an artist, and having taught art, i
can say that there are millions of variations of these
paintings being churned out by nobodies all across the
world, and they are not being sold for millions of dollars,
they are being (rightfully) sealed up in portfolios, given
to parents and siblings as gifts, or burned.

i should've said it "looks good" as much as it "looks bad."

i bet at least one has!" In fact i heard the only reason
these ones sold for so much money was due to that very fact!

i can't say for sure, but knowing human beings and the
depths of their depravity i'd say it's probable.

only one way to be sure: everyone, bend over for an "art
exam."

I have mixed feelings about Peter Halley. His stuff is very,
very, "cold". Which I like.
Any criticism of his art and the market that sustains it is
dismissed by him as "irrelevent."
I don't know, he is a very technical, rational guy, not at
all an eccentric or passionate artist in the old mode of
someone like Picasso. Which is sort of interesting.

car park architecture style stuff.

to be fair, i'm not sure i could judge a work by looking at
a 3 inch by 3 inch pixellated reproduction.

yet i judged them anyways, oops. reflexes.

what are these paintings like in person, i have no idea.

HAHA nice one fletch.
I did think to myself though. "gee he's good a pop style MS
paint art" I think mainly cause the colours are nice.
Knowing these are canvas and not MS paint makes them a bit
easier to appreciate.
