Britain Still Sucks

Gene P here, back from the dead to let you know, just in case you forgot, Britain still sucks my slimy ass.  I was in London a couple of weeks ago seeing TWBE first mate Chazz Constantine’s display at London design week and while sucking down beer that was flatter than the cottage cheese arsed girls flapping at the bar, I happened upon a catalogue which could only be created in the land of bangers and mash.  Who but a fat roast beef-faced brit needs a place where one could order incontinence pants, an invisible urinal, adult bib, the world’s lightest shoe AND a 65 piece 3D model all in one place?!  Being still in the old world I don’t know the new image viewer, so you’ll have to follow me after the jumperama-slamajama to see the rest of the ads…..

a plinth to stand on

Paul Stolper Gallery in London will be exhibiting ‘Accessories to an artwork’, an exhibition by Peter Saville, October 10th.

Peter Saville has designed and fabricated a white cardboard flat-pack plinth, a number of which will be distributed throughout the gallery. The plinth measures 96cmx35cmx35cm and replicates those conventionally made from wood. He has invited 22 others to place anything of their choice on a plinth. This should make for some interesting art. I look forward to seeing the outcome. Possibly a stack of New Order Albums? BTW, they are selling the limited edition of plinth’s for 50 pounds.

The List of Artists after the jump.
