stegra Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 The Yellow Submarine looks quite good, but the Titanic floating hotel! Whatever next? Perhaps the Twin Towers Resort Hotel complex or the Boxing Day Tsunami Water Park. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowland al Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Well don't be surprised when you look the fool for posting something that has already been mentioned. Christ, all I did was point out that it was posted before! Well it did have 'BBC' in the link so I thoroughly understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackrose Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) The thing is that tacky and bad taste are only so if the people responsible can't carry it off. Some of the greatest style is tacky. Salvador Dali's surrealism is tacky if you think about it. I have a friend on a boat in France who's an eccentric madman - he would love that boat and once he added his touch it would look amazing.

Tracy Emin's 'My Bed' springs to mind.........as does the Emperor's New Clothes!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackrose Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 (edited) Tracy Emin's 'My Bed' springs to mind.........as does the Emperor's New Clothes!!!! It doesn't spring my mind but if it springs to yours fair enough. Personally I preferred the "performance art" of the 2 Chinese gay guys who jumped up and down on Tracey Emin's bed shortly after it was first exhibited than the original work. She was really pissed off about it and called it vandalism. But if we're expected to take her work seriously then why not theirs? I thought it was a great statement.
