I'll buy it off you caller. For €250.

I'll give him €200 in cash and a copy of "Just Joe".

Joe is being funny now. He's very funny when he's funny. "You found life in the Bank of Ireland"...a cracker.

This chap clearly has a busy schedule that he can be traipsing around rural Clare of a morning trying to offload some worthless sterling

And then relates the whole tedious story in great detail to the nation

For Forks Sake

The amount of time he spent wandering around, he could have driven up North and spent his sterling

Dan Jaman

Load of boolox; if he'd bothered to make a couple of phone calls he'd have found out the easiest way of doing it.

Artist hasn’t sold any art as it’s probably ****e

Roger_007

He probably hasn't sold anything because it's rubbish!

ButtersSuki

From the bottom up?

An unfortunate choice of words really given the topic.

Beechwoodspark

Art curators ? Pretentious ? No way ?!

vicwatson

Caller paints pictures of cats and cows

BPKS

He hasnt sold anything in 10 years.

If you're a good artist you'll be able to make a living from it. If you're not good enough to make a complete living from it, you can augment it by working other jobs. If you're not good enough to do that, you don't deserve to be getting handouts just so you can sit on your hoop all day making crap and claiming you're not understood.

Dan Jaman

Conceptual Art, eh?
Joe knows all about dat.

vicwatson

Bad line coming up, they who question herr Duffy

Larbre34

Exactly. These 'Curator types' are obviously collectively convinced his stuff is shyte.

That exhibition radio WAS tuned to Joseph, but static was preferred on the customer feedback...

Try the tatooing, plenty of money in that we've been hearing all week

Must have loads of cash stuffed under the mattress.

I think you're right, if he had an account he'd have no problem lodging it to his account i think. But I fear his 'little bonus' that he found he had might be a biteen more than €300 left over after his holiday sotospeak.

People want a exhibition of a shark sawn in half eating a plate of credit cards

DoctorEdgeWild

Sorry mate but if people don't want your stuff then it's just the way it goes.

Larbre34

Good afternoon to fluuuuuu!

Musha.

Beechwoodspark

He can’t sell his paintings

He can’t get them into galleries

He has dropped out of multiple art schools

But everyone else is the problem NOT him

Dan Jaman

Some of dese feckers would have painted the Cistine Chapel in two coats of magnolia.

PauloMN

He the Cobol programmer equivalent of art.... his talent might have been appreciated 30 years ago, but people have moved on!

If Duffy yawns now I won’t complain

Beechwoodspark

Jasus this would put years on ye

Art is non measureable and hence peoples performance at it cannot be objectively measured and graded as to its value.

Modern art is snake oil medicine and smoke and mirrors illusion now.

If you dissent in this regard you are shot down as an unenlightened philistine and people are cowed into accepting any substandard and unskilled junk as legitimate art.

Can I just say if you had the flu you wouldn't be able to ring Live Lahnnnn, you've a fecking cold.

ButtersSuki

Had to take a call, won't be back. Enjoy.
