If you could have any piece of art for free, what and why would you pic? And you can not resell it!!!!

Photograph wise I would love a print of Stephen Shores - La Brea

Painting wise Ed Ruscha - Norms

Always loved David Shrigley and there are a few pieces of his I would love to have.

I think one day I’ll end up buying one when I have that level of disposable income.

I’ve got the “cocaine and heroin” salt and pepper shakers he did. But it’s quite an acquired taste is his artwork.

Mark Rothko - Orange, Red, Yellow or David Hockney - A Bigger Splash.

Both for aesthetic and value reasons!

Cy Twombly's four seasons gifted to the Tate and now on permanent display at Tate Modern (https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/tw ... arts-68307) a close match-up with the Rothko's that are also on permanent display at Tate Modern (https://www.tate.org.uk/visit/tate-mode ... ark-rothko) and were also gifted.

Twombly wins out with the sheer exuberant joy of nature and the fact that they are not best viewed in low light - introspection/meditation can be good for you but life needs joy and light also.

A Bigger Splash is superb!!

Have you seen his Polaroid work?

I have planned on doing one for the Turf sometime. Put them up for auction and proceeds to a good cause? If anyone is interested I could start getting something going?

been a big fan of Lorenzo Quinn's sculptures, particularly bronze, and the Tension piece is one I especially like plus the chess set is something else.

Also I love pictures, I bought a large book of Annie Leibovitz work which has pride of place in the home, different picture on show every week, so many I have not seen yet and have had it for 3 years.

A number of great artists called out, already. Who wouldn't want a Van Gogh, Hockney, Monet, Picasso etc, etc, etc.

I'd start out a little more modest - an original Bob Dylan painting (rather than one of his limited edition prints).

Some years back, I was in Burnley town centre, I think I'd called at Turf Moor to pick up a season ticket - or maybe just let my "better half" see Turf Moor (we live in London). I was looking in an "art shop" and was surprised to discover that they had a number of limited edition prints of Bob Dylan art. These were his "Drawn Blank" series. I'm not sure whether my surprise was that Bob Dylan is a good artist or that I'd first discovered his art in Burnley town centre...

An original Dylan would link my music, art and, of course, always remind me of Burnley. Maybe £50,000 would get me started.

How does "go fund me" work, anyone?

Would find it hard to choose between Lichtensteins Whaam! Robert Indiana's LOVE and Ed Ruscha's Standard Station.. all three totally iconic images

Im a sucker for Pop Art and would probably add a shout out to Warhols Soup Cans.. not the greatest images but they are pretty much responsible for the start of the Pop Art genre that we still see today

Id also think that in time Banksy's Love Is In The Air will go down as one of the defining images of this generation ( not a big fan of the Girl With Red Balloon.. which I think is a bit twee!)

Perhaps one for another thread but I just don’t get Hockney. The painting you mention doesn’t look anything special to me, but of course art is subjective and, not being an arty person, I perhaps don’t appreciate it as it should be appreciated.

I’ve been round the Hockney exhibition at Salts Mill a few times and whilst some paintings demonstrate he’s talented, most of them were just a bit meh, to me!!

I can walk into many a local art shop and see some obviously skilled paintings or drawings, that I’d appreciate far more than almost works by Hockney.

'Art is the dexterous manipulation of material means, to manufacture pictorial scenes'.

What would I like? if I lived in a nice apartment then something perhaps by Raoul Dufy or in contrast a stark Cubist collage by Braque or Picasso.

Best way to start collecting is buy work by young artists.

I’ve started buying signed limited edition photos and first edition photobooks. I bought poorly at the start but improved. Got a great print by street photographer Dougie Wallace.

I'm flirting with the idea of something by Tom Friedman but would almost certainly settle on a Glenn Brown painting. Couldn't ever tire of looking at either artist. I'm sure loads more artists will spring to mind now I'm pondering over this question.

Very suprised at somebody saying Guernica by Picasso. It's undoubtedly a masterpiece but portrays so much pain and suffering I couldn't even consider living with it.

What I find amazing is that they were all doing it (Warhol, Ruscha, Lichenstein) before they first met. All took inspiration from the boring every day objects. William Eggleston (photographer) is very similar. Finding moments of beauty in really nothing.

Warhol was a genius. Making art about consumer mass produced stuff (Soup Cans, Washing Powder) Then hiring people and using silk screens to mass produce and sell.

I get what you mean. They’ll be 1000s of better painters in art school in this country. But art like music personal. You like what you like I guess. I’m always drawn to the “I could do that, but I didn’t) stuff. If that makes sense.

Monet - San Giorgio at Twilight

I also like Monets Westminster Palace series. And Seurat's Bathers at Asnieres in the National Gallery is fantastic.or any of his pointillist work which can look a bit meh in books but on the canvas it kind of glows. Its too big for my house though!!!!!

Jackson Pollock Mural if I could have the original, although I'm not sure I'd have space for it anywhere.

As a more achievable piece, I love the work of an artist called Richard Blunt. I've got a few of his canvas' but would love an original.

A bit more popular culture, for me it’d be pieces by:
> Peter Saville
> Kevin Cummins
Both find there way into record sleeves that formed a major part of my musical education & fantastic promo-posters

Alternatively, and a little more ‘formal’ art, really like Peter Howson’s stuff.... especially “Selfmade Man”

He really is the artist of the social media generation.. currently sticking two fingers up at the established way art works - with no gallery representation and all the established museums Tate, Moma , Soca etc are railling against having any of his works in any exhibitions under the illusion that he isnt a ' serious' artist.. The joke will be on them though as in 10 / 20 or 30 years time they will be packing them in and see him as a cash cow when his exhibitions earn them millions from visitors when he does become recognized

He is unbelievably socially aware, stands up for rights and beliefs that are close to him and very much puts his money ( or art ) where is mouth his supporting those beliefs

Love him or hate him.. He has been doing his stuff for 20 plus years.. so is no flash in the pan and his place in Art history is already well on its way.

p.s. Im not his agent.. just really appreciate who he is, most of the work he does and what he stands for ..most of it done in a funny or thought provoking way
p.p.s. I think this escapade sums him up perfectly.. the pieces on this stand now change hands for £300k plus.. https://youtu.be/7mxJT2uXtrE

To really understand that picture, it's supposed to read as one object upon which is a race graphic livery.

I've used the MCN tableau to help the viewer make a connection between the way a contemporary motorcycle is made up of vehicular components and the way the 'transcendental object' is made up of component parts.

It DOES work, but it works at the very limits of human perception.

It's the hardest art to get because it requires of the viewer, advanced perception skills in architectonic reasoning.

For example a square has the geometric capacity to represent a trapezohedron ( a solid figure whose faces are trapeziums or trapezoids), but there are no spatial cues to see it that way.

To see beyond appearances is very difficult, even with the knowledge.

The work is based on simple logic: Images are made of 2D shapes (pictorial acreage fact), 2D shapes represent 3D form (geometry of perspective fact); images represent 3D form (logical fact deduction as epistemological method).

If one can comprehend the MCN tableau as coloured ink and 2D shapes to be re-envisioned as 3D form, then one can appreciate more what I've tried to achieve i.e. rockstar and overnight millionaire status (after 40 years!).

Hauxi, Banksy is a government agent to provide solace to Hull etc. whilst pouring bathos on better art, for the sake of visual power in the hands of corporate media and not me.

You can't just put art up for auction at sotherbys, you have to have provenance from a gallery, the work has to have been sold in a gallery first, I have letters from them, as I've tried... UNLESS you are Banksy or Damien Hirst.

Banksy is an art world insider, presented as against the art world because a totalitarian state provides its own opposition, you can't get in.
