i quite like it! and the rest of the gallery has got some really nice work too from other people

i don't like it.
- may i ask why you don't like it?menos
- it's just my personal opinion. i think it's just boring concept. there's nothing interesting about paparazzi like photos and making social comments using pop culture.tkmeister
- and making social comments using pop culture reference or whatever.tkmeister
- it has been done quite a bit before.. especially by her but still, i find some quite amusingmenos

I'd be interested to see them up close. It'd only work if the execution is flawless.

I think it is interesting.

seems like the sort of thing someone would "fun wall" post on face book. to me it lacks depth and is really nothing more than your average one line joke.

but i'm sure its only a matter of time before i'm standing in front a 30inch print of the queen on the shitter in a prestigious gallery somewhere

Or Elton getting an enema.
These seem to be the sort of things that will generate Art Forum articles on "Meta-Celebrity and Meaning in the Contemporary Landscape." In other words, shallow and boring. But in a way just barely interesting and novel enough for us to write bullshit articles for college students.

I like it. its interesting and entertaining.
It is what it is, no need for crazy artist in depth "what does this really mean" BS.
- But what DOES it mean?stem
- doest it really matter? I mean lets just say you come to a definitive answer to what you think theses mean, then what? what have you gained? thats right. nothing. so why bother with things that dont matter....
..you could just spend your time playing Battlefront instead :)sofakingzero

Great stuff. One of very few moments in NT history that QBN Certified actually signified quality.
It's the only kind of joke/commentary that work on the internet. If the same pics were in some gallery i might expect more depth, but because they "pay off" so quickly (and lets get real we want quick pay-offs online) those pics actually becasome quite deep.

i love this stuff.
the gallery's horrible introduction essay i don't love so much. they lifted part of the artist's statement and added pretentious fluff on top.

Had a look at this in bookstore today... almost bought it.
I love Alisons work, this book seems just as good as the first. Yeah, there's the initial joke side to it, but for me it makes me question what passes as 'News'...
Is Alisons work no more fake than than the stuff passed off as reality?
To be honest, most of these pictures, when added to a bit of copy, and a headline... could you tell if it was real?
Honestly?
