WORD LOVE

I’m The Man

02.06.10

whotheman

It’s one of those popular myths that Eskimos (is that a PC term these days???) have something like a billion words for snow. Actually that’s total bollocks, but what I can say for sure is that artist Rudy de Belgeonne has at least 1000 words for ‘Man’.

His new installation ‘Who’s The Man?’ at The Future Gallery is an attempt to define masculinity through the medium of 1000 beautifully hand painted tiles each one carrying one descriptive term or another.

Together create a giant 5m by 4m patchwork of Queers, Cowboys, Yardies, Jocks and Ponces that covers just about every possible facet of  male identity. It could make for a great form of alternative bingo.

Clearly appealing to another mail trait, that of the obsessive collector I have to admit there’s a certain Pokemon-esque ‘gotta catch em all’ quality to it, and if I had a few grand to chuck around, which sadly I dont, I’d be at them like a kid at a pick’n'mix stall.

Still if you do have a bit of spare change and are stumped for a Father’s Day present then head there over now I’m sure you’ll find something to please the old man.
