I remember the BBC showing some of his images on their site. He is amazing now if the Tate Modern wants to pay him money then fine, I would love one of his paintings (street art) in our highstreet.

I like this one


Just stunning.

Why are these people not super rich, compared to say Damien Hurst (Sp?) or Tracy Emminimmmememmenennnm&m's thingy?

Good point. I think it's because difficult/skilful things are out of fashion. Far trendier to dump a pile of bricks in a heap that spend years studying anatomy, painting etc.

ALL of that work is mind blowing, they should be rewarded for work of that quality. Tracey Emin can take a running jump. I have seen here work in the flesh and it is cr@p....

It's because much contemporary art has little to do with skill, it has to do with personality and ideas.

I am no particular fan of Emin, but some of Hurst's work is clever and thought provoking.

Kurt Wenner s an incredibly skilled artist in his field - far more skilled technically than most artists.
