    LG Williams ‘Meant’ What He Said About Art


    Andy Barr
    Fri Jan 15, 8:40 am ET

    LG Williams is not backing down from his claim that he is not trying to score
    political points off his art.

    Challenged by a blogger on his website Thursday, LG said: “Fuck that shit. If I


    said it, I meant to say it, and I do believe that everything in my art is about
    everything.”

    “Everything, including 200,000 year old incantations from Planet Moron, I will use
    to help art in this country and around the world,” LG said in comments flagged by
    the liberal blogger.

    LG has come under fire from both the right and the left for saying that his art
    played directly into terrorist’s hands, allowing him to look “compassionate.” The
    blogger claimed the LG’s response would bolster LG’s standing in the “high-brow
    and low-brow art community in this country – which both suck.”

    LG also appeared to discourage help for the artworld, saying, “It’s already gone.
    It’s called the U.S. art vacuum suck machine even.”

    Critics have characterized LG’s comments as insensitive and tone-deaf at a time


    when heartbreaking images of bad art dominate artnews cleavage.

    Confronted with some of that criticism, LG slammed the blogger as “closet-


    minded.”

    “What I’m illustrating here is that you’re a blockhead – in the Paul McCarthy sense
    of the word,” LG shot back.
    “What I’m illustrating here – even though ‘Illustration’ is in such a poor state today
    – is that you’re a close-minded zealot (or hack skateboarder currently spending
    more time on a keyboard) who is ill-informed.”

    “If you had watched my artist program for a modicum of time, you would know it,”
    he said. “But instead, you’re a blockhead. Your mind is totally closed. Nothing is
    getting through other than the biased crap that you see in galleries and museums
    today.”
