From The Desk of Corny Corncub



Dear Art Review,

Do you have brain damage? Why are you such idiots? Why are the top three artists on your "power 100" list Men who might of been powerful 10,15 or 20 years ago? Am I living on another planet? Did I miss blow job day at Art Review Magazine? Because I never wake up in the morning thinking about the work of Damien Hirst being influential, I thought it had been established that he is a joke. ABCN likes Tracey Emin and believes she is more influential then Damien Hirst by a long shot. So are a bazillion other woman. I know it's too much to expect that you would include more then one measly woman artist out of 100 art world people on your stupid fucken list, so I won't grip about the ONLY ONE WOMAN thing because, well, honestly after years of reading lists like this (like getting slammed in the Yoni by a ten ton steal girder over and over and over) the fact is, my feminist spirit is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Is Matthew Barney more powerful then Amy Sillman or Lisa Yuskavage? Or maybe you mean he's more powerful at arm wrestling? Because surely you don't mean he is more influential then these ladies. I look forward to never ever being on your list, thanks for not concidering me or anyone I think of as "Powerful" in the art world.

Sincerely Yours,

Corny

Comments:
jeff wall?
 
yeah but how many of them can spell Postmodernism?
 
google image search does a shit job with "postmodernism". I'm sorry I won't be here today to discuss the power100, It's ungodly early and I must report to the upstate facility. Wishing I could send the clients my brest milk FedEx but alas, they pay me to do it in person.
 
What's with the term, "gallerist," anyway? Why not just "art dealer?" Gallerist sounds cheesy.

So we looked it up:

I believe the expression, "same shit, different day," applies here.
 
corny,

this list made me vomit about a week ago so i've had time to move on. however, i'm firmly hanging on to the fact that ben lee is cheating on me with an international popstar who just happens to be my arch enemy. read about it at a blog called boadwee today.

i miss the fuck outta ya. did you get my phone message about listening to LAWANDA PAGE?

all my lovin',

GBOTBAATAKAFKAKB
 
GBOTBA, I'm all over Lawanda Page, can't wait and I swear if ben lee hurts you certain international pop stars are going to be singing in a much higher pitch
 
This may be unrelated, but Tracey Emin reminded me of this group of morons....

Killer Corn.
 
I like that the list refers to people born in communist countries as "blah blah born" so like, Chinese born or Cuban born...it makes me think the author of this list is simply amazed they can pull themselves up to compete in the int'l art market.
Now i will never look at this post again, because, Corns, it makes my skin crawl.
Thanks.
 
hideous. besides the gender problem which is pretty much INSANE here uh, how is it that most of the inflential folks here on this list are NOT artists?
 
Yeah, thats a good question. I mean ULTIMALELY the artists are the ones who stear culture in whatever new direction it's going to go. Are people inspired by the chairman of some portugues bank or a work of art? The people who have the power in the artworld are the artists. We could exist without them but they couldn't exist without us.

From Irit Krygier's "Rules for Artists":

Rule #1: Other artists hold the key to your success
Artists hold the key to the art world. They make the art. How strong a career you have and how far you will go depends upon one thing: the esteem you are held in by other artists. How strong your influence is on the work of other artists makes the difference as whether you will be in the history books or not. Of course, everything flows from the work and its ambition and strength. But it becomes stronger when it is in dialogue. When I was a gallery owner and now as a curator, I always look at artists who other artists tell me are important. When curating a show, I ask other artists who they think should be included. I know that all serious curators and dealers operate this way as well. They ask artists they respect to suggest artists and they earnestly consider those suggestions. Dealers may tell you that they are not looking for artists, but I promise you, they always are looking. Therefore, Rule #1 is to invite other artists to your studio and stay in dialogue with them about your work. This is the way you will be included in group shows or find a dealer. And never stop doing this throughout your career.
 
that is awsome 3D.

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.

For several years , I make money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my web site to get additional info.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in big starting capital.
Nowadays, I feel good, I begin take up real money.
It gets down to choose a correct partner who utilizes your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, and shares the profit with me.

You can ask, if there are such firms? I have to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:
