Billy Childish and Charles Thomson - From the Artists category:
When somebody produces something which is deemed art, they are denoted an artist. Some poor souls subsequently suffer from the delusion that anything and everything they then do is also worth to be called art. (Billy Childish and Charles Thomson)
Billy Childish and Charles Thomson - From the Confession category:
The current artistic preoccupation with morbidity does not address the life and death issues which it purports to, but is an unintended confession of the practitioner's own artistic death. (Billy Childish and Charles Thomson)
Billy Childish and Charles Thomson - From the Contemporary Art category:
Some people view the contemporary art scene with fear and desperation because there is so much crap. We, however, rejoice because we think it is funny. (Billy Childish and Charles Thomson)
Billy Childish and Charles Thomson - From the Fashion category:
The function of fashionable art is to give fashionable people a painless simulation of culture. (Billy Childish and Charles Thomson)
Billy Childish and Charles Thomson - From the Limitations category:
Sound in music is the equivalent of colour in painting. If the restriction that is put on current popular music were put on painting, the only tube of colour available would be Euro-beige. (Billy Childish and Charles Thomson)
Billy Childish and Charles Thomson - From the Mediums category:
Just because a particular medium has been used for making art, it does not necessarily follow that any use of it is art. For example, silence is an integral part of music, whereas a piece comprising of nothing but silence is not. (Billy Childish and Charles Thomson)
Billy Childish and Charles Thomson - From the Painting category:
We paint pictures because that is what we like doing and we lack social skills at parties. (Billy Childish and Charles Thomson)
Billy Childish and Charles Thomson - From the Technology category:
Digitally re-mastering recordings made in the analogue age by past artists is the equivalent of improving a Van Gogh painting by sanding it down and touching it up with an air-brush. (Billy Childish and Charles Thomson)
