Liked your comment on the top 100. Left one below you. I would send a friend request but I have yet to figure out the process.

Hi Alexander

exactomente. When an artist dies, people write down what their strong point was, or in the case of say pablo picasso, despite being a capitolist, what his several thousand strong points were. When hirst makes it to the finish line I think people will write down that he was able to make sculptures that raised interesting questions, a shrewd business proprietor. But there will also be the lingering reality that he was detested by thousands, if not hundreds of thousands (?) of people, for simply being arrogant. dali was beyond arrogant but I think many art lovers and collectors simply let it go in the face of the fact that he was a dedicated artist who really created his own language.

I am going to post a blog/review on this v soon. I hope that you can get your article published - as I am certain many galleries in London would love to read it!!!!

Also this issue of paintings being priced for simply the sake of the market (1500 pounds for a bowl of fruit at the Adam Gallery in Bath???????? With a meager 7 hours of production???????) will eventually collapse on itself. I am a practising artist with about 7 dedicated customers, underpriced work, but I tell them all the time that many of the galleries who price these pieces in the 2000 pound range don't actually sell alot of them. Thereby simply one gallery that could shift say 100 originals in one month for 200 to 400 pounds would be a gargantuan news story. It is obvious.
