The biggest enemy of art and artist must be the limits of his own imagination.

The better the imagination the better he would be able to create…

I never thought of such a fact that you have revealed about art and artists. I always thought that artists must have been given rewards and prize money for such a rare talent that he posses. Now I know that Art has really an enemy and we all should move ahead to bring down all those curators and dealers who are exploiting the artists. I really appreciate your move towards such an unseen facts which we all were unaware of before.

Artists need the art market to sell their works. But when the art market grows it also become art ‘s enemy.

Sometimes it’s difficult to ask ourselves: what do you want to make, art or money?

Hey thanks Burning, it’s good to know I’m not alone in my frustration with the art market. By the way will you invade the estate agents or take the more law abiding route and ask for permission? I’d like to know your reasoning behind the choice of inflatable ‘animals’, I’d have thought deflated people would be more suitable for the current property market or maybe even stand outside and sell property made from Lego :p I’d love to see the video if you make one, Youtube fame awaits.

I adored your post. and so very true.

Its all about money and who you know. You could have the most beautiful artwork in the world, but nobody will know, or care until mega bucks can be made by those middle chaps.

It angers me.

Im a great fan of art outside – with or without permission. When I get together £100 im going to put a load of inflatable animals in an estate agents
