From the artist on FUCK THIS SHIT / BUY NEW ART

“I originally conceived this series as investors were hijacking the art market by pursuing art for greed’s (not art’s) sake.  My paintings openly raise the question of what is really obscene: four letter words, or crass commoditization of famous paintings by dead artists?  The negative premise leads to a positive conclusion—buy new art!  I challenge speculators to support contemporary artists who explore new ways to see the world.  To me, today’s obscenity is resurgence of political forces that would take us back to some of history’s worst chapters.  I am making a statement against destructive populism from the right or the left, symbolized by (but not limited to) the words in “4G: Greed, Guns, Gas, Gods.”
