“No one came,” he said. “I asked people; they said they were too busy. So I burned my paintings to protest. People in this community are stupid. They don’t care about art.”
quote:
Elatab said the pieces he burned were painted several years ago. Each one took him about a week. He said he doesn’t have any regrets about burning them. Instead, he feels “relief” from expressing his frustration with flames.

I think he improved them.

I, I don't think that's how it works

This isn’t a movie. People aren’t dying to walk through some chic artist show

He reminds me of the author from New Orleans who faked his own death on the Causeway. He thought it'd help book sales. It didn't.

I mean I’d feel pretty bad if I was that guy too, but he took it to another level.

His art doesn’t look very impressive

When a reporter asked Elatab if he is a little crazy, the artist shrugged.
“Yes,” he said, “like van Gogh.”

Legitimately a quality melt.

Way too many people that suck at art fool themselves into thinking their no-talent lazy shite is worth looking at. The bar has been removed entirely, everybody’s an artist nowadays. Talent is not longer celebrated at all.

I bet if you search social media there’s a picture of him in a pink knit cap.

It's like that Eddie Izzard stand up on Hitler and his early days as a failing artist:
"I can't get the f***ing trees.....DAMN! I will kill everyone in the world!"

Maybe he shouldn’t be such a shitty painter
Posted on 10/5/18 at 9:53 pm to Tigerbait357
Loon! I can all but guarantee he has relatives and friends that were outside (or inside) the U.S. Capitol Building today.

His artwork will probably be worth a fortune when he dies. Some rich supporter of the arts will start to support his work and others will follow (keeping up with the Jones’). Like Pollack and some other nurs!!!
