The Idle Foundation ....... I hope you find it a healthy distraction from the rigours of financial servitude imposed on us by those god aweful gobshites who purport to run our countries. Do potter along to the Forum and sign…

Baron Verkmann commented on Baron Verkmann's group 'Idle Artists'

The passing of our figurehead fills me with great sorrow, however we will continue with his fine portrait as a tribute to our solidarity. Brian Haw RIP. (7 January 1949 – 18 June 2011)

Idle Artists

Have you hit the wall? or maybe you just need a break from the pressure of Principles, Clients and Agents... Idle Artists is not as it might suggest for artists who don't want to work, but more for those who need time to think and maybe re-invent.

I have been thinking for some time now that I should use my business contacts made over the last 30 years in way I want to live my life now.

Profile Information

Member type: Other

If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?: Conceptual, Digital, Drawing, Painting, Photography, Printmaking, Sculpture

I am...: a well connected businessman, suppling non art based products into large corporate clients, however I am looking to use my contacts to promote artworks from across the globe, If your interested in me representing your work then get in touch.... the only way to make money these days is to sell.... and that's what I do best.

About my artwork: My work Is a reflection of the meeting of people.... likes and dislikes, vices and fantasies what they know and don't know and how they deal with it.....

In order to work you need to listen and talk and divest the conscious from the unconscious.

Artists I like: Rauschenberg, Steichen, Lartigue, Beuys, Dali, Richardson, Emin, Beardsley, Lalique, Mapplethorpe, Weston, Schiele.

Interests: men, women, wine, sex, classic cars, motorbikes, drink, people, motor racing, oh and did I mention sex, I'd smoke if it was good for me........ ah what the hell.

Centre of the artworld:: another city

I've just been getting into stills photography by way of friends I know in the industry... indie/DIY industry. I don't have contacts yet, but will be happy to share once I get some. Sometimes I check mandy.com too. Check it out if you're not familiar with it.

If so I would like to contribute to your film. I have just moved back to the UK after living in Brazil for 24 years and I suppose I have some interesting work to show. Look at my name in google and you will get a general idea of my art activities...

At 3:47am on June 3, 2009, Rebecca said…: Well, my art isn't dictated by financial gain. Back when I was in art school I realized that I didn't want to create art for the sole purpose of making a sale. Of course, since art school I have done many things in the corporate sector and gotten a little too far away from art. Now I'm trying to come back to my creative side and figure out how to better bridge the gap and work in both worlds, each with it's own rewards.
