The AFC Work of Art Supplementary Program Guide

Didn’t you call me “rough” not too long ago in regards to gang WANGA? The subtext of at least half of your editorialized bios are that they should throw themselves off of cliffs (or in front of trucks)! Metaphorically, of course.

Is it legal to set up a betting pool/AFC fundraiser?

If so, $2 on Nao to win, place or show.

Technically I only wrote 7 of the bios, interns Liza Eliano and Michelle Halabura wrote the others, and while I edited everything, I can’t take credit for their opinions (right as I think they are).

Anyway, technically I only find Mark deeply troubling.

Oh, “deeply troubling” is tremendously generous. He seems more a David LaChapelle wannabe who wants to shoot actual porn but can only make generic Vice-magazine-esque “misogyny” photos, all with the same numbing “high-quality” finish. His creepy cheerfulness is just your average fake-y “professionalism” covering up some fairly transparent self-loathing and general anger-at-the-world.

Off the cliff. Metaphorically.

Reality television’s sole purpose is to inspire schadenfreude.

Trong shall win, BECAUSE he’s a robot.

how fun, it'll be like a party at housing works as there recent incarnation channeling death.

I have no idea if this service is reputable or not….but might be the way to go. You just have to decide what percentage goes to the house. Think about it….this could mean DAYS of lunch money for your interns.

The first link is childish (like, “it’s a color test but I wanna tap ‘dat ass, bro!”), which is just your run-of-the-mill lame machismo (and a dumb way of reminding any of his viewers who might think that being an artist is “gay” that he, in fact, isn’t). Being a total sexpot himself, he seems to find it necessary to constantly remind us how of into-the-ladies he is.

From what I can tell, the second link is just him re-posting someone’s outrage at outraging statistics regarding rape, which I take to mean that he, too, finds these statistics outrageous. So, that one’s just really tautological. Actually, BOTH links are tautological. I guess that toothless, amateurish, “exploitative” photos of buxom women is shocking now.

Thank you for this sublime due diligence. I have no words, except that all is as I thought it would be. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I think Jacyln may have R Shultz beat on bad photo-realism.

Congratulations to Peregrine! Those of us that knew her in KC know that she’s been waiting all her life to be a television star. This is going to be BIG for her—think of the celebrity endorsements she can do for Dick Blick! You go, girl!

@AFC: It’s all of this IQ’s-dropping-at-a-rapid-pace that’s making me nervous!

But for us tv-less (and our slightly better-off cable-less friends), where can one find a public viewing of this trainwreck tomorrow?

hey paddy, with all your hype on this show, i was wondering if Wooster Collective is going to call you out on it and make a post stating that you are a paid publicist for the show. what do you think?

Well I am enjoying this tremendously. Letting you guys say some of what I bite my tongue on. But…As I said in previous threads I vouch only for myself. So in that regard…1) My website is NOT geared towards promoting this show, as I think was said somewhere. 2) It may not be iconic show like Bad Girls, but since my “re-entry” I do not sneeze at solo show at Galerie Conrads, or Paper Exhibition curated by Raimundas Malasauskas, or solo show at Fruit and Flower Deli, NY, or SOS 4.8 curated by Jota Castro in Spain, and just returned from installing at DUVE Berlin. And I will also (as humbly as possible) add that I just had a studio visit with Carolyn Cristov-Bakargiev, the curator for upcoming Documenta 13. OK??? So I think my credibility is doing pretty darn well….Thanks for the opportunity to tune it up! Judith

i ( sadly ) don't believe that with the art world the way it is , these guys , good artists or not , will have a good reception in the future .

but .. hey ! can you blame an artist that is just trying to show its work in a market where any door never gets opened ?

let then try in peace .

what really scares me is the idea of a contest like this . transforming art production in a freak show for the masses .

but all artists , in one way or other , have to pass by process of selections to have their works aproved . this is just one more . and one more time , as always , it is going to be ridiculous and unfair .
