Title: Ilfracombe
Post by: Shackeng on 27 November 2017, 19:35:29
We have just returned from a few days in the area, and took a look at the Damien Hurst 'Verity' statue.
We thought it was hideous, and a product of a very sick mind. :-X

Grotesque. I’m sure most of the people who admire these kind of works do so because they are afraid to speak their minds.

Had some great hols in Ilfracombe, the walk to Woolacombe around the coast is fantastic. 8). As for the "artwork", at least it,s better than Tracey Emmins stained bed of a few years ago.

Tracy Emin’s face looks like something Damien Hurst threw together.  ;D

That statue in Ilfracombe was very controversial when it went up, and was featured in the local news round here quite a lot.  ::)
