if an unmade bed is art the critics will love my bedroom theres a whole load of other un-done things they can buy too :D

Re: The value of public funded art
 

Yes.

When it's launched into the atmosphere by me.

It then becomes part of an on-going conceptual art piece I've been working on since 1965.

'Life is a Minestrone.'

Brought to you by Heinz.

Sadly sponsorship will be withdrawn, when I'm 57.

Though I have been approached by a tripe company, who seem to see something in my work, and who might continue funding the piece.

Well they say Art is Art don't they, now where did I put those drawings my 4 year old grandson left me:D So £4500, for this bit of Mr Hurst's art, must be a snip;)

Re: The value of public funded art
 

The only art that I can think of, that hasn't proved to be a wise long-term investment, once the money men have decided it's valuable, would be the work of so-called (American) child prodigies.

Most of whose output, at a later date, usually turns out to have been produced by their conniving parents.

Surely there aren't parents like that................are there:rolleyes:

Yes, and even more shocking is the fact there are plenty of suckers willing to part with their dollars, for one of the tiny tot's 'masterpieces'.
