to Oliver James.
I would happily extract even other than the stick you mentioned out of my butt with the intention of producing art and I am sure that your humble opinion would not accept it as art, because of the lack of aesthetic impact it will have on your senses.
I don’t know if your high school teacher mentioned bad taste or kitsch when he/she told you any moron could tag anything as art as long as he mentions his intentions of creating art.
1. This guys’ work hopes to get a viewers’ wow-effect, generated by the visual impact. There’s nothing wrong with that so far.
2. As I read, he is specialized in mosaic. He designed a pretty nice concept – to renew the technique using unconventional material, namely nails, thus creating a monumental image that impresses. I also give him credit for that.
3. The choice of image is a study of Da Vinci. That pretty much cancels his whole impressive technical concept. The choice of remaking an already famous image, using himself of this fame to get money. Therefor it’s business.
4. If you wouldn’t know the “pixel size”, namely the thing that is interesting in the work (because as i said, there’s nothing so grand in showing me an image i already know), if you saw it from distance, you’d aknowledge the da vinci image(if you know it) and pass by as it doesn’t do anything unusual with it (the image). The subject of the work consists in the nails. The message of the work is “Look! Nails!” Therefor it is bad taste.
5. As you may have noticed i haven’t mentioned anything about the original message of Da Vincis’ selfportrait. And i won’t. Let the high class critics fight about it. Either way it’s only one of his studies, his drawings, it’s his work, his image. I can accept piracy on other levels. It’s pretty stupid to put taxes on information and not develop a way for people to be able to watch movies or listen to music without paying for it. But that’s another field. Suppose I took Stanley Kubricks’ “Dr. Strangelove” and deleted a few scenes, mixed up the ones remaining to not make any sense at all and at the end, presented it to the world as my own creation…now that would suck. It’s this kind of piracy I have a problem with. And the aaaghtist above did pretty much the same.
Sorry if I offended anyone, as Oliver James did. I didn’t mean to attack anything else but inner shallowness, bad taste and deficiencies of visual perception.
astonishing……..i want to see this kind of art face to face..salute to these artist.
damn…u are so not real….ar u a human?….very imposible to belive..just perfect..cayou

That’s impressive, always a joy to see people making art
sir jorge´s last blog ..The Goods Review
it was really nice
To madkorova.
You’re obviously some kind of asshole art major/teacher/whatever. You’ve missed the whole point here. Actually you’ve missed the whole point of art entirely.
Art/culture builds from the past. Example: Hip/Hop was born from sampling old funk and soul records. Just as Hip/Hop sampled from the past, this guy with the nails and DaVinci portrait sampled from the past to create something new.
Get over yourself.
Madkorova, you’re a pompous jackass.
To Daniel Berube.
I agree with the first part you said about hip hop – the dj uses samples from older records to create something new, but his product usually creates a totally new context and, the most important, a totally new MEANING! Nevertheless hip hop is not only about the DJs work, so you can not have an MC put on piedestal for rapping some stolen lyrics, but in another technique; i’m even fine with cover songs, but covers are ok IF they REINTERPRET the old song or at least give it a new feeling. However, are there any hip hop musicians you know, which have become famous due to cover songs only? eg Dizzee Rascal with “that’s not my name” – suppose Dizzee wouldn’t have had those older records which he did just great, nobody would take him seriously now. Even Fu-Schnickens quoted others, but they had a sustaining merit for themselves. (HELLO??!!!) This guy with the nails, well please DO bother looking for his portofolio. He’s a phooony!
Art/coulture is of course built up from fragments of past experience, but quoting an older shape or even a new shape must be sustained by value and meaning, which this monumental hungry for fame guiness book record hunter cannot give to anything.
Merry Christmas and stuff
Thank you Daniel Berube and Chris…. and to Madkorova:
1)Ever hard the phrase, art for the sake of art?
2)This guy has put more sweat,thought, and most importantly love into his piece than you’ve put into your entire life.
3)I’m pretty sure I’ve never seen any art created out of freakin nails, so it is pretty original and not to mention beautiful
4)The subject of your review is “Look I’m an Asshole!”, therefore IT is in bad taste.
5) Piracy is awesome… ARRRRRR!
during da vinci’s time there were no computers, or power drills or iphones. (no to put down da vinci;s invetions they are very complex and quite astonishing but still made of primative elements.. wood metal etc). nails are also a primative medium as is a hammer and therefore i think a good medium for such a portrait. the manual labor could be a tribute to such times where we werent using computer programs and had to actually go to a library and do hours of research to find information (or just disect dead organisms lol)
I agree with Madkorova.
anyway, who can define art?
art is movement, it is a lifting.
Beauty out of beauty, or even sculpted of crass/I have nothing more. We cannot define what stands beyond. Humanity, reality, the greatest art. Those cheap pretendings nothing more. at the very least give us something of your own/show me your human, and nothing more.
everything, born of a soul untainted by wickedness, is beautiful/all is art.
//show me your human
give me your heart//
For crying out loud people….if this isn’r art, then what is?
And don’t give me any of that University Art Degree crap……if a piece of work touches your heart, then it is art.
This is beautiful wonderful creative art.
@madkorova
Last time I checked doing a study of another person’s work in a different media was still considered art.
There is a difference between respectful emulation and theft of concept.
You might also want to consider that many of the most famous artworks in the world have been in some sense based off of another person’s ideas.
Not everything we perceive will be unique, it doesn’t make it any less artful when we chose to recreate it.
This is an amazing piece and I doubt any of us here would be able to outdo it on a whim.
Re: Madkorova’s comments…
If you don’t consider this art, then consider the creator as a craftsman, and admire the effort and craftsmanship that he used in recreating this image rather than labeling him a thief and claiming his work is of no value.
Also consider that the greatest of artists have spent time learning the skills needed to create their art by copying the creations of those who came before. If all this gentleman does is create more copies, then a craftsman is all he will ever be. If this is a stepping stone to finding his own means of expression, then he is an artist.
In either case, I look forward to seeing what he creates.
It’s art–just like velvet Elvis paintings.
Madkorova took the words out of my mouth.
Sure, this is really cool, but imagine if this artist took something PURELY of his imagination, and created that instead.
Then I’d be impressed. For now, this is a lovely and creative study of an already famous work.
And I’m not some pompous art professor, I’m an artist myself.
