We’ve seen Kate Moss, twice. He has even done Angelina Jolice. Michael Jackson. It’s now time to see Pamela Anderson. Twice also! Marc Quinn is a stubborn artist. He loves his celebrities and he loves casting them in bronze!
As if the world wasn’t pleased with just one Pamela Anderson, Marc Quinn’s statue of hers shows not one but two Pamela Anderson. It’s the very culture of the world we’re living in because, explains Quinn, “what Pamela has done is use surgery and transformation within the mainstream cultural context, whereas everyone else in the show has struck out on their own.”. Marc Quinn is the artist of vanities and empty values. And for that, the world loves him so! Do you? (via)

No, sorry but I don’t like his work. I think it’s silly to make statues of celebrities as if they are Gods.
If this “thing”is considered as art, then the ones who make sex shop dolls are Michael Angels of our times….
No, I am not a fan of his work. I do understand his construct though, but I am indifferent to his ideas and subject matter.
They should use this one as an award for something along the lines of the Razzies. ;)
