You know what? F#$& you too...

Ok I censored myself because I know that a lot of other blogs carry the headlines from my blog on their pages. But be warned. The rest of this post I'm going to be working blue.
Kenny Scharf, Fuck you. It is dickheads like you that keep ceramics from being taken seriously. When artists from outside the ceramics world step in an make ceramic objects that are A) Stupid, B) Ugly and C) Pointless, you drag us down with you.
You see Mr. Scharf has just released a line of Bongs that he is selling in the Cerealart Gallery in Philadelphia.
Oh, look at me, I'm so clever. I'm so Urban. I'm so fucking Ironic...FUCK YOU!
You are a pompous, condescending and artistically illiterate douchebag, and your work is ugly and outdated. The 80's called and they want the dis-effected irony back.
Now, to the ceramics people that are still reading. This does not mean that you are all off the hook for the lack of respect that ceramics gets in the art world. We dug our own hole and it is our job to get out of it ("Dig Up, Stupid!") And don't give me the "I don't want to be a member of that club" nonsense. This is about respect, and we need to garner respect for and of the art community. End of story.
None the less, this is shit.
I'm not going to post links. If you care, you can find it yourself.
Well someone is a little testy but alas you are right. We need to dig our selves out of the big bottomless pit that is history. I blame the people that started making clay tobacco pipes. I shake my white fist of death at you dead people.
