There was a big fire at Momart, the art storage warehouse in Leyton, and Charles Saatchi lost a load of his Britart. The BBC have done a pictorial guide to some of the works lost but surprisingly have omitted the Chapman Brothers' Hell. I feel lucky that I've seen Hell twice so won't really miss it. One of the brothers used to live over the road from us (when they were less famous) and we used to play a game called 'Is Dinos in?' which combined the unpleasantness of Rear Window with the voyeurism of I-Spy. The game used Dinos's name but I've always had problems telling them apart. White people all look the same to me.
Full disclosure: my neighbour works at Momart but hasn't been there this week. It was nothing to do with him. Also thanks to my talented friend Buster for the BBC News style montage of Saatchi and the brothers in flames.
Posted by catfunt at May 26, 2004 10:33 PMThey're doing the fire on Newsnight. Gavin Turk looks and sounds just like Wayne Hemmingway but more camp. Paxman made some comment on how the word tragedy has been bandied about this week - with an eyebrow and a drop of tone the unmissable implication is that the death of Palestinian children is a tragedy, a bunch of art burning isn't. The idiot presenter said how Tracey Emin's tent listed all her lovers (which it does) but it actually lists all the people she'd slept with so included her nan etc etc. (I don't really care about the tent but the decline in journalistic standards yadda yadda). And lastly I didn't know that Tim Marlow is a director at the White Cube.
Posted by: Paolo at May 26, 2004 11:08 PMWell, the sum total quality of art in this country has gone up a notch thanks to the fire...
