Stuckists On Parade
I see from their website that the Stuckists’ show, Go West, has opened at Spectrum London - funny how all the major newspapers’ arts pages seem to have missed this… Famous for their media manipulation, have the Stuckists brought it on themselves? Are critics petty minded enough to ignore them on purpose? I think the latter - those often pretentious wankers are mostly a bunch of smug gits who just happen to move in the right circles.
Good news, also from the Stuckist’s website, is that artist Michael Dickinson who was jailed in Turkey for a collage, is now free.
Whilst I do not subscribe to some of their philosophies, I do like a lot of their work and I wish them well with the show.
Don’t forget the Triumph of Stuckism symposium and exhibition starting this week in Liverpool.
