A bit of abstract art for a change, I hate abstract art with a passion so I thought I’d have a go at doing some. This image in true abstract fashion is called “Warwick Summer and the death of 3 aardvarks”
Recently one of my fellow art bloggers mr wolf had an interesting topic of art theft, this was about Roy Lichenstien and his blatant reproductions of old comics. Then this week the “artist” Damien Hurst was accused of copyright theft of the painting “penguin daisy” by computer artists Robert Dixon, they are having a bit of a battle now over who did the original. Hurst has exactly the same amount of spots but is slightly larger and coloured, which to me seems quite a coincidence.
You can see the 2 versions about, one is called Daisy or Pengiun and the other by Hurst is called Vallium.
However what someone has failed to point out is “who cares they are both a load of crap”.
You can read the full story over at the Daily Mail.
