When I was nineteen years old I lived in sharehouse on ANZAC Highway (Australia). In this flat we deep-fried our food to the point that our stoned-selves would leave the foodstuffs frying until the pot of hot oil would catch on fire. We idiotically threw water on it, which caused an explosion. No direct sun-light shun in this home, our flat was one of many carved out of a dilapidated mansion. We got an awkward slice of it that the sun could not reach. Ten meters away was a brothel and at nighttime, a sense of fear chilled the concrete pathway surrounds. This was before everyone had the internet (we certainly didn’t) and long before youtube ever existed. You couldn’t just click your fingers and ask your phone to educate you. But us stoners were a little too paranoid for libraries. Many from this era have passed away or remain casualties of addiction. Late one night in the home who’s lack of sunlight confused us to what time of the day it was, I saw the first episode of the TV series THIS IS MODERN ART. Just as lucky - I remembered to watch the rest of the series too. What it did was challenge my notion of what art was or could be. I was surrounded by art, home-made hip hop, crude offensive cartoons, defacing of Bill Cosby pictures (well before their time) and many things that could be retrospectively called “found art”. This fantastic series was written and presented by Mathew Collings for Channel 4 UK and something I continued to think about. Its reverberations encouraged me to turn my sketches into paint, pastel, ink blown from a pen and bleach because it was clear there were nor rules. Paint lead to video, which lead to volunteering in community TV and so on. I basically cleaned up my act. Years later I’m part of a video shop/filmmaking collective far away from the bong-soaked carpets and bad food of Plympton. But I keep remembering this 6-part TV series and sighting it as having a lasting impact. It had been a decade and I feared watching it a second time. Nobody wants their world/memories to crash down around them. What if it wasn’t that great? But revisiting the series actually exposed something even more complex than my memories. Now with a decade in between, I was more familiar with art history and better able to understand some of the grander thesis Collings stitches through the series. Its great to revisit something and be wowed once more and on different levels. How could a 1999 TV documentary about modern art still be so relevant? I have watched plenty of art documentaries since and worry that they now lack the idiosyncratic thinking, criticism and ideas of past programming like that of Collings and the late Robert Hughes. Instead, such newer programs try very hard for safety in consensus that they have almost nothing to say. Why do we have such consensus about things that are so subjective? This rehashing of tired narratives, often with the same footage has made recent arts programming irrelevant. Sometimes its great for a presenter to have an opinion, a living-breathing thought of their own, regardless of what the popular view is. The whole thing is much more alive when a host confronts the subject rather than just presenting it. So I just want to thank writer/presenter Mathew Collings for his fascinating, witty journey through the images of the twentieth century and the standout filmmaking from director and author Chris Rodley. It is worthy of retrospective, its insights perhaps truer than ever. As a lost-youth, I was lucky to have this catalyst in my life at the right time. I just hope other generations can expect the same from our public broadcasters.

I can relate to the squatter past life, to which you affectionately referred. For me it is a Jenga tower of memories which both scares and inspires me. In a world where we can be forgiven for thinking that mankind is becoming increasingly void of all original thought, we find so many presenters of art content merely regurgitating. The great thing about the internet is that it gives us more power to choose what we want to view.

...when the Mona Lisa first arrived in NYC in 1962, society's attitude toward art completely changed at the point. Warhol himself said why not put a picture of the Mona Lisa on display since no body would ever know the difference. People started treating art as a celebrity and what kind of monetary value it can bring based on popularity. Art created after this point became about who can make art that would create both shock & monetary value. The prime example for this was Damien Hirst's piece,..

even Egyptian, African and Mayan drawings/paintings found enabled us to decipher what it was these people were thinking, feeling and doing at that given point in time. Modern artists such as Picasso or Matisse were merely trying to break down techniques from the Old Masters to reflect the new way to look at the world. In fact, these changes were happening right at the time of the Industrial Revolution all the way to man's first successful flight.

Duchamp was making a statement. Not all art followed his philosophy, cubism, surrealism, futurism, hyperrealism - they all have separate ideas. Also a lot of modern art follows traditional principles - you cant judge all of modern art on a few statement making pieces. Each movement has strange and fascinating ideas.

The only true art movement that this era will be remembered for in the future is grafitti/street art. Some of the work being made across this planet in this medium really are masterpieces. The modern form of grafitti has been around since the 60s and is still evolving and going strong. Also with the advent of digital art through painter/photoshop and wacom tablets plus the internet 'modern art' in an established sense is dead and galleries are only there to show art of the past.
