"The Big Three"



Pablo Picasso.
"I am art".

Jackson Pollock.
"It doesn't make much difference how the paint is put on as long as something has been said. Technique is just a means of arriving at a statement"

Andy Warhol.
"Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide wether it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it and while they're deciding, make even more art"

"Untitled" by A.M. Monaghan

















What a life this is,
what a dream,
what an awakening,
what tears of joy,
what laughter.

From our first breathe to our last,
man, woman and child.
And with what pain, anger and beauty
we enter this world, dumb, innocent and blameless,
no reason, but to be.

How similar we are, and how different,
together and alone we live
and with great sadness we die,
all our expectations turned to the wind
and to dust,
and to time,
and to eternity.

Talking Pictures...It's a kind of Bonzo Dog Band Documentary



Dazzling, surreal, audacious, brave, stupendous, hilarious, frightening, bizarre, goonish, catchy, childish, handsome, ugly, technicolour DADA...a few words to put in a sentence about The Bonzo Dog Band for your English homework. Still Britain's second greatest pop band off all time, and you can take that to the bank, but they wont give you money for it. Don't believe me, watch this rarefied collection of true British eccentricity in full speed ahead action painting, action man, action lights, action cameras, action music... Action. They are The Beatles on laughing gas, I think.
