ElPunto Posted May 9, 2006 ^Well, you certainly won't attract them with the title of your thread "hey Art fags". On second thought, maybe you will.........hmmm... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ariadne Posted May 9, 2006 an art fag is just someone who falls into the categoryof ppl who eats breathe and sleeps art and a have a pretensious streak as well as a moody streak. They know everything about every artist of every media even the most obscurest. lol I'm not an art fag...well maybe I am ... no no just sometimes. I will start off then... I guess I am a toronto based video artist, performance artists. I paint and sculpt and make dolls all with it as a side to my insomnia. yaya! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElPunto Posted May 9, 2006 ^well Kreepy - you learn something new every day. I've always wondered - how on earth one survives as an artist? Is that why they turn to drugs of all sorts - to dull the hunger pains? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conspiracy Posted May 10, 2006 whats the purpose of this topic? or is it just self-advertisment? and watch your language with this art fags thing.. damn kids these days! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ariadne Posted May 10, 2006 Conspiracy: The point in this topic is exactly the question that I asked which is is there any artists on this website? Most of the studenst are in academics or IT technology on SOL... I've noticed anyway. So I was wondering if there were any fine arts students. Allow me to clarify this is not self promotion ....(ethnic folks don't buy art lol) It was just a call out to art students or design students...to hopefully see if there's other members here. The topic does not need to have any more of a purpose then to see if there's anyone else on here studying art. Art Fag is not a bad word. Seriously the word fag has many different meanings when used alone it is to describe a flamboyantly gay man. When used with art it means something different alltogether. If your offended by the word fag... then don't bother reading a post about it. End of the line. Thepoint: hello most artists have other jobs.... such as teaching... or working as a dishwasher.... or selling... stuff the whole turning to drugs is soo first year art school or high school even. Actaully scratch that it's so circa 1986. And besides everyone knows the substance abuse that is popular in the art world is alcohol. And its very lovely mistress mental illness .... sigh they are such a dreamy couple Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Animal Farm Posted May 10, 2006 K. Kid There are several filmmakers, and many graphic designers on this website - they might be offended by being called fags - and although as you mention art fags might have a different semiotic connotation. I am a toronto based video artist, performance artists. BTW, where can your work be seen, and what sort of performance do you do? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nephissa Posted May 11, 2006 Wow, that's creepy, Kreepy! I'm not an Art fag, but an admirer of Art. (Picasso is my fav.) I'd like to have an artist paint Will Smith on my bedroom wall, I'll supply whatever it is you need, paint etc; even air fare. Watcha think Creepy? Drop ideas of what you can do, yea? I'm also in need of some actual structured lessons, on my own part to focus on what I'm shooting. I love shooting in black and white. And 3/4th of the time they turn out missing half of the image. Ama il is missing or af baa maqan. Anyways, please do tell where/what art gallery your work can be seen? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ariadne Posted May 12, 2006 Animal farm and Bishita: It is proposal season yay!...

Strawberry_Xu Posted May 19, 2006 did a topic on this a while ago, and there are quite a few arty people out there. Lots of writers too. Me = a film student/filmmaker, studying at uni in the UK. At the moment I'm only doing music videos, but I'm busy setting up a production company with some people, and working on short films and a couple of possible features/documentaries. I do webdesign on the side, as well as some graphic design. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
