I know you are all about the mustache and I love that Sal... just stuff like this is getting to be a bit much lately and I love that Vandalog just stepped out and posted an amazing piece regarding 'art' of this nature: blog.vandalog.com/2013/02/art-substance/Food for thought as things are starting to get a little out of hand with some folks getting shows after doing 6 months (or less) of work on the streets and really only having one or two main 'images' they work with. |

I have no time for Vandalog, far too much time "sucking satan's cock". However, thinkspace makes a very good point. Who the fuck is buying this shit? And why? |

I totally see your point Andrew.. and I agree this has gone out of hand!.. I never saw Moustache Man as an artist, but a guy that was doing a silly thing writing "moustache" on adds and ended up in trouble for that.. so I got a little add for my stache collection.. I never saw his "stuff" (can't really call it "work"), as something that is gallery worthy, or has artistic value, so I wasn't too bothered with where it was going.. but this show, and the story about "his take on Mr Brainwash", is just ridiculous..
Im sorry if I upset anyone with posting this up, but I obviously wasn't aware of the bigger picture ..
