- It takes an artist to take the every day into the realm of the universal. Hipstamatic helps.
- Floating leaves and butts. Hey, I seen it win a contest. Urinals and toilets are edgy, too.
- I have learned so much about street photography from the masters. That’s why I call this one “Why Did You Walk Away As Angels Danced On The Edges Of The Shadows?” Poetry kills it every time.
- It is hard to convey the multi-dimensional personalities of animals. Hipstamatic helps.
- Photos of feet are always cool and hip. Shoegazer yeah yeah fuck yeah!
- I took pictures of these empty chairs to symbolize the Wound in the Zeitgeist due to shit mean people do.
That’s right. Why fight the tide? I say. So … every First Friday of the month, we are going to have a big gallery of street photography and Hipstamatic shots. Hell, Instagram as well. All kinds of stuff you don’t see very often on Pixels. Pictures of people’s feet. Their backs. Lots of Hipstamatic shots of espressos and I hope a lot of meaningful desaturated shots of mannequins and who knows what else … Weekly Prizes! Prints! Get your work in front of major curators from around the world.
We’ll call it the Bob Dobbolina Hipster Cantina … in honor of the old Negativland song, and Bono …
Details for entering after the jump.
It’s April 1st. I couldn’t resist.
who are the jackals of your speak? not me. i am the great klootzak.
ask around the artists you speak for – someone will know about it.
knox,
if you did attempt street photography with your iPhone, i’m quite sure that these WOULD be your caliber of photografs. ha ha ha. get real, dude. your shit sucks, always has…always will, in many ways.
now be a man an leave this post up.
– Vande (nope, not an April foolz)
I’m crying, Vande. Don’t know who you are. Never heard of you. Are you like a star on Instagram or something? Thanks for stopping by!
So I googled Vande Klootzak to see if I could find this rising star of Instagram … amazingly, this is another fake email address.
“Klootzak” is Dutch for ball-sack … I guess it was meant to be an insult, but you can lick mine, Vande. Too bad you don’t have the balls to put in your real name and address. Makes me miss the pricks of the old days who used to pile on here.
Well, my Friday is complete.
You respond like a 4th grade child.
“You can lick mine”. o WOW!
English isn’t even my first language and I can respond more intelligently than you.
I am simply stating, on behalf of many other artists…you are not an artist.
Remember this while you post your daily excuses for art. It’s really not art, klootzak.
Learn from others who have created names for themselves without too hard. Not like yourself.
Vande
Jeez, Vande, you are the one who started the ball-sack joke, I was merely riffing off it.
I happen to love my own work and I know that others do so as well. I have two pieces in the permanent collection of the SF MOMA. I have been asked to be in a number of shows, so I must doing something right. Just yesterday, in fact, a curator put me in a show coming up. I’ve never promoted myself like I promote other artists on Pixels and the medium itself, but I’ve decided to do a little more of that starting this year.
I don’t take the time to go to other people’s sites to tell them when I don’t like their art. Also, I put my name, my reputation, my work, my face, and my email and my phone number out there every single day. Anybody anywhere, obviously, can contact me. Like you.
You say you are simply stating, on “behalf of other artists,” that I am not an artist. Probably artists whose work I’ve turned down in the past. You all tell each other how great you are; you count comments on flickr or Instagram and IPA. Some of you go on secret facebook groups and trash me, lie about me. Others have done worse, i.e., the lynch mob that led to the collapse of a museum show I put a year-and-a-half of work into. I know who those people are. Destroyers, jackals, who do not create.
But you, Mr. Ballsack, don’t even have the courage to identify yourself. Know this: you could never be me, do what I have done. All of you added up together couldn’t do what I have done. You can crawl back into your cave again, huddle together against the cold, join in the circle-jerk. There is only one Pixels and there is only one Knox Bronson.
I create and that makes me an artist.
I just posted a podcast on the site for you: be sure to listen.
Goodbye, Vande.
Lol thus really had me going until I looked at the shots & read your comment, brilliant April fools :-)
oh GOD! I was drooling at the thought of finally releasing to you ALL my very good Hipstamatic prints, the ones my friends and family oooh and aaah at…
Candice – ALL of them? Just the cream, please! La crème de la crème, s’il vous plait!
I do publish Hipstamatic shots once in a while. If you want to submit, be sure to crop out those big ugly black frames! :)
