yup that doesn't exactly do it justice does it...?!

Am i right in saying thats the new one cos the first one burnt down in theat big warehouse fire did it not?

fairly sure it would just take a week or so to whip up another,
chapman bros dont use hired help do they?
so its all there own work right?

That is indeed the new one - so ironic that Hell burnt. Looking forward to seeing it - hope it doesn't finish before I get a chance to go...

yeah they do... my mate Rosie was part of the 8/10 person team painting figures.
Saw her before it opened and she had a pocket full of zombie dead things

irony much?

the first one was insane, very impressive.
they pissed me off a bit messin with the Goya etchings though.

? nope ?
why? dont understand

really wanna see this...Im not that into art tbh, but this is right up my street....

makes me want to dig out the old Action Man

So your into Nazi's, Gratuitous violence and torture?.....Nice :)

HANG ON A SEC...

Which white cube is it in? Hoxton or Masons yard?

masons.

looks like this to me.

yeah exactly how i described it to gabes on sunday... like a fucked warhammer

Isn't that what's so great about it? :)

jake is a cunt

I worked with them both at the Barbican, I was lighting director for a show they had 'designed'.
We ended up in the conductor's room having a huge row.
MJC ^^, is a bit right.

yeah, i saw him on TV once, being a fucking cunt.

saw their original at the sensation exhibition at the royal acedemy a few years back quite epic pieces of work they then got burnt along with saatchi's other brit art works tracey emins tent hurst pieces too
they do seem to have a bit of a nazi theme to their pieces of art work the designs / doodles on 5 pound notes they did a while back all had swastica's and ghostly nazi soldiers on them maybe they should hook up with max mosley for a night down in his dungeon mit der frauleines

Think it was origionally at Apocalypse, both that and sensation were bloody good exhibitions in my opinion

what eles was at sensation that year ... 1996ish?

Damien hirst shark, and that picture of myra hindley.. damn has it been 10 years?!

the myra hindley portrait made out of smaller moira hindleys hurst's cow and shark ( possibly )
emins tent chapmans did another piece with loads of wierd manequins merged at the middle i.e with two torso's / heads penis's for noses etc lots of wierd stuff

jake and dinos chapman? yes thats right

didn't Sensation have a beautifully rendered child's hand made out of black and white prints of Myra Hindley faces or something........?

12, Prav, 12 years mate. You know you're gettin' on a bit when you're not even sure what year it is.....

haven't J&D Chapman started daubing rainbows and stuff onto Hitler originals? I think they started doing it to old Bosche paintings. I thought that was sacriledge or however you want to spell it. Hitler's are a better idea.

But I did think most of those Britpop artists generally leaned toward the cunty side of human nature. For some reason I rather rate Emin's outlook on things, even though I couldn't stand her for ages and hasn't done loads to progress her ideas. For some reason I always kind of liked Damien Hirst too.

On the other hand Noble and Webster are talentless-gobshite wannabe rock'n'rollers who lucked out on the Saatchi gravy train. They should rightfully have spent the 90s teaching GCSE art in unremarkable state schools.

IMHO.

abit like this?

11 year PJS! That iron/tongue poster was up in my art department till 1999 anyway...
