Please forgive me: Art Basel is kind of rough on the no sleep tip and I did not get names of the artists who created the following works. If any one see’s this and knows who these were done by please let me know I would love to credit these works they are all very different from each other and all great!
This work below is by Greg Gossel who is either one of the 2 guys in Fail or should be really embarrassed. Ok so I hardly ever am negative about art but right here I think this needs to be examined. The below work is looks a lot like Fail end of story and I feel it is a case of biting. I think what makes Fail interesting is the blurring of the lines between graphic design,street art and gallery art. What makes this interesting is the fact it is derivative and not much else. Biting anyone?
This is a Faile canvas from 07. Hello? Yall get my drift? it’s called biting and it’s not cool in my book end of story.
Ok enough calling out the suckers right? Anyways I dug Aqua good stuff espicially from Think Space and overall a bunch of cool work.
Enjoy

Yo I’m a big FAILE fan, and I hate to see the biting. Thought it was mad funny how you called him out on that.
