Rolf's art is still worthy to society
No one wants a painting done by a pedophile on their wall.
You're missing the point.
The point is their monetary value as an investment for the future.
The works of Cezanne, Picasshole, Ken Done and all the other 'modern art' graffiti that poses as 'great art' might all be absolute garbage in reality, but these paintings were
marketed cleverly by entrepreneurs in such a way as to give these works investment value ... something that's on the increase with each auction.
Once something has been nominated as being of financial value, whether this 'value' is intrinsic to the work or just notional ~ it doesn't matter which ~ it then becomes a commodity on the international market.
I have a pro hart....but as far as I know he wasnt accused and found guilty of being a paedo....
I am sure the paintings wont be destroyed..
as I am sure if some scribble done by Ned Kelly would be more than wanted by someone today who has too much money to spend.....
however I would hope it would never end up in our galleries and or museums...bought with thousands of our dollars.....
we need to start respecting the victims....
I believe a lot of people bought Chopper Reads paintings as well...... we live in weird times...
I tell you who is a very good painter.. Ronnie Woods from the Rolling Stones....hes amazing.. wouldnt mind one of his...
How 'bout Bill Wyman's art. Would you have any of that?
