tryharderfailbetter: March 2010
http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, 13 March 2010. Hot Naked Lowry Action. The Base, Sydney, 2010. It is obvious that Spencer Tunick has been strongly influenced by film, as many of his pieces feel almost sci-fi in nature, and suggest our intrusion, interrupting some unknown narrative. The landscape Lowry painted has almost disappeared, so where is Tunick planning to arrange his nudes? Http:/ thespencertunickexperience.org/oldindex.htm. Http:/ www.thelowry.com/ The Lowry.

tryharderfailbetter: November 2009
http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 25 November 2009. Forgot to mention this on the end of yesterday's mega post. If you want to watch a more hopeful and measured view of the current art scene on TV, I recommend Where is Modern Art now, which is available via the link below. Its part of the Modern Beauty season the BBC is running, which School of Saatchi is too. In Where is Modern Art now. You'll have to be quick though as I think it goes down soon. Click, click, click! Where is Modern Art now? And Hounds of Love. The criteria o...

tryharderfailbetter: December 2009
http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, 26 December 2009. I'm currently gorging on xmas cheer here at tryharderfailbetter, so I'm too obese and drunk to visit any galleries or think about art. Hopefully I'll have something to say in new year. Yeah right. Who knows. But I'll keep my eyes peeled. Merry Christmas and Happy new year to you! Monday, 14 December 2009. The final episode of School of Saatchi. But what do I know? I thought Roger Hiorns. Would win the Turner Prize. Tuesday, 1 December 2009. Some kind of weird amateur builder.

tryharderfailbetter: July 2012
http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, 8 July 2012. Urgh, how has it been a month since I wrote I'd have an update in a month about we face forward. I'm sure I wrote that only last week. I'll make sure to post something this week. Work is slow at the moment so I'm sure I'll be able to rustle a few hundred words up. In the meantime, that series of Grayson Perry docs was certainly something wasn't it? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What does this all mean? There should be gallery. And anything else vaguely related to art. Image: pubic hair...

tryharderfailbetter: July 2010
http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 27 July 2010. A shock from the mains. I'm sorry but I have no excuse for an absence of this length. It's not that there hasn't been any art to review, as there has. I went to see it, made copious notes, and never turned it into an article. I'm sorry, I hope you can forgive me, maybe we can give things another chance between us? Intuition, is at the Whitworth gallery until January 2011. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What does this all mean? There should be gallery. And I'll get onto it right away.

tryharderfailbetter: April 2010
http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 13 April 2010. So it felt like I was back at art school for the evening which brought back memories, and when I got home I tuned into Goldsmiths: But Is It Art? Oh wait hang on, that Goldsmith’s thing should be repeated on Sunday at 10PM on BBC4. Http:/ www.castlefieldgallery.co.uk/Default.asp? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What does this all mean? I'll try to give you my idiosyncratic take on the Art scene in the Northwest, with what I hope to be a much needed touch of humour and irreverence.

tryharderfailbetter: Re-beginningings.
http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2014/02/re-beginningings.html
Friday, 14 February 2014. I'm back. Don't look so surprised. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What does this all mean? I'll try to give you my idiosyncratic take on the Art scene in the Northwest, with what I hope to be a much needed touch of humour and irreverence. As much as I love Art, and I do, I feel it can be a bit aloof, detached or unapproachable, and just plain wanky at times. I hope to be an incredulous guide through this, by turns seemly torrid yet passionless landscape. Run Paint Run Run.

tryharderfailbetter: 2012 and so on.
http://tryharderfailbetter.blogspot.com/2012/06/2012-and-so-on.html
Saturday, 2 June 2012. 2012 and so on. In my last post, dated June 2011, I promised there would be some updates soon. I don't work at the college any more; now I work for a marketing company, mainly Photoshopping a blue sky into pictures of shops. It's not the most glamorous of jobs. I'm also learning the violin at a rate that would embarrass a 4 year old. The new We Face Forward exhibition looks good. I promise you some sort of content on the subject with the next month. What does this all mean? After n...
