  they were all twats.
  the magnet sculpture was a nice idea but all his work was the same, just messing with bits of machines. He didn't really know why he was doing them.

  I liked the commercial artist who did paintings to commission. He was the only one who wasn't pretentious, he just wanted to paint on his own terms.

  None of them could draw though, interesting that these days you don't need to be able to master figurative art before you move on, you just go straight into video installations.
  As an example. Picasso drew/painted these when he was 13/14, these guys can't even do life drawing in their mid twenties:

  

  
  

  

  They all seemed in such a rush to get somewhere without knowing why they were doing it.
