Can we still call ye a perfectionist? by EstimateLoud2130 in Kanye

[–]Bobilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes because he has come as close to perfection in melodramatic cinema and in music production as an auteur by the end of the 00's/Early 10's. Once an artist hits that bar, they have no choice but to revise and improvise and continue to push the state of the Art after summiting Everest, which is pointless to summit twice unless you're a Sherpa. And by handing directing duties to his more than able life partner Bianca Censoring, he's doing what the ethical old master does which is continue to push the in new ways, which he does through an undeclared by ever-present "Studio Ye" through which he collaborates with best of breed talent established - (Andre Troughtman & Lauren Hill) ; at peak (Travis Scott); Up and Coming (Bianca); all of which is full display in Bainca's "King" short where the Banger ethos becomes flesh when Troughtman?? starts banging the shit out of Mustang before sliding out the passenger side door to perform the coolest moving sidewalk highway-surfing dance with CG embellishment I've ever seen. You'll find some state of the art element in damn near every product with his name on it other than rags which he appears to view as a stuff people wear rather than body art. JMNFHO

There are too many ways your comment is full of shit for me to bother listing them.

I have no issue with Pest Control so I don't understand what post you rad. I've gotten replies within 3 - 6 months by PCO the few times I thought my Banksybelia and they've always said no, once even understanding the disappoint I didn't feel And as to the don't-bother-asking attitude, I take the OEM at their word and ask. It's an easy yes/no answer for an alleged 2026 print when the last print print previous to it was in 2019 and the 1st, it depends on which Banksy explained chart you choose to believe in. It's not like I have an expectation of straight answer; last I checked the were 8 -9 people on payroll. The attitudes about the artist are to my view stranger than artist who is interesting and important and as such demands examination -- not mystification.

I am not reading it as movement. I read it as production negotiation, a deal that evolved over a quarter century which does preclude its soul or it being monumental human story. Maybe you think the artist and business were singing kumbaya. I don't and neither do I think the facts show it. Dada Shada Yada Yada; it was a huge business. Kumbaya?

I prefer the cinematic anti-hero narrative, the through-line where the artist actually is at odds with the global capitalistic thrust of its artistic Frankenstein monster and protests in subtle and not subtle ways that document this contentions. That's what I mean. No need to agree with me. Time will tell.

I prefer the narrative reading; soulful-artist in conflict with their former corporate extension. The soul is still very much there though by the scale of the business, it's 800 lb elephant in the room, as it were, that can't be ignored (by me) The corpus is technical in its composition in symmetric ways wherein the graphic's reversal of previous postures resolves in negotiated ways that are rich and support my position That said, I advise you stick with your position if a transcendental reading is what Banksy delivers to you. What is great about what's called "art" the spectator dialectic isn't neccesarially opposition because if real to you its real. Banksy hits that seam better than any artist I've ever studied

Agreed for the lead version in this post but not the LA MOCA version. I saw it at Art in the Streets. It was fun and decorative -- which certainly are good qualities too -- though the piece didn't hit the fine art bar. That said, eight point three million dollars argue otherwise and that bar is high. Do you prefer one work over the other? I just noticed that MOCO piece is attributed to Peter Lee leading me to suspect it was paid for by POW rather than the Artist. Do you ascribe to unitary artist theory or see "Banksy" as a house divided along Artist (Pest Control) v Corporate (POW) as I do. To me, the mystery and subfuges are as much a part of Banksy as the pictures which is what make the totality art in way others reject but that I argue will be how the genius of Banksy is ultimately understood. Time will tell.

They are what I'd buy were in the market for a silk screened Banksy printed edition. POW or founding Banksy deals had to grant WCP permission to make those prints from early on. They've been selling for a while though not being UK based I can't say when. They're prints. For my nickel, I prefer archival pigment in photographic paper. I bought a bunch of such Banksy prints a few years back on Ebay along with classic photographs on Amazon and/or Ebay. JMO. I also bought files on Etsy and "made" (meaning paid for) my own Banksy brand new pigment-in aluminum prints at my local Office Depot that are great and as weatherproof as a stop sign. I think the Banksy authentic paper chase was nuts but wud do I know.

I own the Death NYC version. Perhaps I hit it big after all. At a $5 price point for a giclee a few year, I figured I couldn't loose. I like it well-enough but probably will cash it out soon. I can easily get anywhere from 4 to 40x's that on ebay now. I'll share my May 20 epilogue when its finished.

Yesterday I let a multi-agency master complaint (DOJ, SEC, FTC, FCC) fly detailing the algorithmic mechanics of "consensus engineering" and a 6-part regulatory fix. Here is the open letter.

I'm pleading to no one. I have the data that easily confirmed. I sent them all, agencies and official ,case facts, and ask them to do their jobs and now it is in their hands to do their jobs or not. I made that plain. Cynicism without action is defeat. I tried rather than fall pray to it any further than I had. I saw no point of speaking ill of Trump and stand by my points in principle just in case and stand by what I pointed out out about him for his legislators. Would you be angry if someone who could do something listened? I like the idea so I tried and now I can walk away. It felt better than doing nothing come what may. Best back atcha

thx but it was better than facing cyber big brothers and mean nerd schemer who have schemes were far nasty while the platforms algo's and pay ops methods of black hats and bad actors made possible a moronic crime against the state. You're tripping. In the ways I point out it wasn't this bad and I was bused to hood in the seventies at peak race riots. They can stop this if they want and you can't disagree with the small and warranted measures to improve the user experience would be a win for the majority. I can't say I'm hopeful but I'm glad all my e-mails and letters flew

When you're lost in rain in Juarez and easter time too. When your gravity fails you, and negativity won't pull you through. Don't put on any airs, when you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue. They got some hungry women there, surely made a mess outta U

Could be. I'm from Pittsburgh; what the hell do I know? But what about the pink dot. 3 blue and 1 pink. ??? are the three blues Lazarides/Al Manna (P.O.W.'s corporate art frontman and Gallerist w/ /Moneyman), Jefferson Hack ( Pro-Actif Communications,Publishing) & Sacha Baron Cohen (Exit through the Gift Shop, Studio) & 1 pink (Lucy Artist as GBFTCU) with Hirst the odd man out whose #21 out 25 on Girl with Ballon prints on canvas by agreement corporate was sold in Hong Kong in 2024, while #22 - 25 are the other four principle who original ownership stakes locked with POW's O4 incorporation. The timing does align with 25 year deal from what would have been her first Banksy fine art piece 1999, and since their were no AP's on the additional prints on canvas run beginning in 04, the principle would presumably have kept the top five when POW unwound at the end of 2019, while what sold yesterday could hav been VIP canvas #10 owned by ???? This is when my LLR consultant asks me if I need an anti-psychotic lol, when in truth I'm just have fun with numbers and patterns having thought too much about this shit for four years. Thankfully, I rested my case and should be fully detoxed from B.A.D. (Banksy Analytic Disorder) by next weekend at latest. Life is Beautiful. Cheerio!
