Oh that Vantablack guy

[@GT_User-c9v]

He was being so ugly to other artists

A humbug of an artist. Scribbles a concept on paper, then hands it to an engineer to make it possible. I had the displeasure of meeting him once. So thoroughly permeated with his own self-importance and with a very hefty messiah complex.

[@aeronovus]

Anish Kapoor represents the worst excesses of yes men approving and feeding off of each other's egos. Vantablack should have never been copyrighted, and using copyright law in some vain attempt to put it to artistic use in your own way is ethically wrong and a piss poor mentality to have. Shame on you Kapoor.

[@teddywitch]

It kinda sucks that a lot of his ideas artistically speaking really resonate with me, the bending of visual space, illusions, all of that. He should embrace what we collectively can do with those kinds of materials and techniques, how we can use these things to tell stories. Doing what he did was so very childish and sad and really gives off the energy that he thinks his work can only be special if only he has claim to the ideas at hand. When truly, art doesn't work that way. It feels like a really old school mentality. This documentary made me really conflicted on him. Regardless, the Vantablack thing was truly inappropriate and Stuart Semple did the right thing by making his own version of it.

[@DennisMHenderson]

@@teddywitch you crybabies are not artists for a reason; evident in your attempt at regurgitating the sesame st.-level anti art manifesto from any elementary forum of unimpressives

[@alcy-]

It wasn't copyrighted, that's not how copyright works. The process for vantablack was probably *patented*, which is normal for these types of things, but regardless the process of applying it takes specialized equipment with specialized people. What Surrey Nanosystems did was give exclusive right to Kapoor to have them apply their thing onto artworks.

[@m.d2491]

Screw that guy, trying to prohibit other artist from using a color 😂 kudos to MIT

[@brunoyudi9555]

funny how the only memorable thing about this guy is being the "vantablack guy"

[@yaush_]

bro anish kapoor is on my hit list I swear!

[@leckloy7972]

This guy has no right to talk about art if he's hindering others from making art..

[@aussieraver7182]

Imagine being an artist, finding (not inventing) a shade of paint, and asking to get copyright for it. You arent helping the art industry you greedy man.

[@herrwoland3500]

I love the guy and his work by why should he do that about the black color, it's such a shame remembering he's such an asshole about it each time I'm reminded of him

[@tendaimsimang8630]

That Vanta black episode revealed a characteristic that can’t be forgotten, perhaps in time it will be forgiven. It’s good though, that he is a good artist. Best to eat the fish and spit the bone, a difficult exercise but worth while if the fish taste good and you hungry. I might have lost my appetite for now though.

[@jek__]

@@tendaimsimang8630 great metaphor! He's got too many bones for me to chew

[@jonathankranz2799]

I can see why neolibs love this kind of art; the "artist"'s exploitation of the actual material handlers (engineers, craftspeople) echoes, rationalizes and justifies the neolib's exploitation of labor.

[@MrBrian17172002]

When you get fame and ego consumes you whole

[@lotusspider7]

I suppose the postman feels moonfell or he's falling down the rabbit hole through the looking glass; everyone on this street is called Anish Kapoor.

[@annaogulewicz7872]

Hello, does anyone know the title of the object that appeared at 1:08 minute?

[@Xgtth]

Noo000op

[@playingwithdimethylcadmium2766]

So much for being rights to vantablack

[@NocturneSilence]

Imagine breaking your brain studying and spending time in your lab and an idiot takes your invention without saying thanks

[@aboucard93]

Talk about ruining your reputation

[@glowingrectangles4596]

Pretty fukin cringe Really?! Youre the first to mirror a concave surface!!?? You gotta be joking! And of course all the hoarding A real "risk" would be to let the tools out into the wild and see what other artists come up with.. This is a classis case of needing separating the art from the artist... I really want to appreciate some of the stuff and I'm sure I would if I saw it in person, especially if I didn't know who did it..

[@jek__]

I guess he's never seen a vanity mirror lol

[@Yogoniogi]

IS THIS THAT CAPITALIST DYSTOPIA GUY??

[@hookuptruck]

Nope.

[@SaikeeKonosukeLuc]

He tried to prevent people from using a new color. If he was so talented, he would instead inspire others If every human being was like him, selfishly caring about his own achievement, we would never evolve. Despicable artist. I do not care for what he has achieved. If art is a way to convey your mindset and feelings, then let it be known people should avoid this artist.

[@Xgtth]

He buy a color to not even use it

[@pagorami5253]

comes across so arrogant

[@davidsanchez2572]

Um macaco e um pincel fazem mais do que kapoor com todo o orçamento do mundo, um falso artista

[@ILuvCaifanes]

Vantablack guy

[@djordje3555]

nobody in comments came to appreciate the knowledge and wisdom of his words. you are here just for the drama, what a shame

[@shaneayers4338]

What someone does is very often a far greater indicator of their character than what they say.

[@plauditecives]

Meet him one day. You'll change your tune.

[@cornballmcgoo7174]

he is not wise he should be in jail and his work destroyed you are also a bad person

[@jek__]

What does that tell you, that people hate him so much? Especially people who have met him personally, evidently

[@kagato23]

What else is there worth knowing about him? This video sure as shit doesn't give us anything. Fuck Anish Kapoor.

[@lakshmanankomathmanalath]

Hey it’s that guy that thinks he can own a colour

[@lobstermash]

I like the work but he makes my hackles rise.

[@PerryLevy]

Anish Kapoor's work always speaks to me. What a gem of a doc Art21! Well done. Also, that studio must be so toxic if everyone is wearing those suits. Too cool!

[@artist_b.]

amazing art documentary.....

[@MANlNBIACK]

His work is pretty cool but he sure the hell is not!

[@sujaypaul369]

Beautiful. Thank you so much

[@JacobFolena]

Anush Carpoor…is he the one does that thing with the blackest thing in the world? I mean Anis Karpoor…belay my last. Oh my…Anish Kapoor…sorry, it’s bit hard for Asian to pronounce.

[@AlisterKarl]

That was an excellent insight into his work.

[@Maxwellfranklinbeck]

Beautiful and inspiring. A wonderful balance between spirit and self. Would love to sit down and share a cup of tea with this man someday, felt as if I was listening to myself. Wonderful. (:

[@jamesbaxter9975]

Yeah but only Anish Kapoor would be drinking tea as he would have a copyright on it as well.
