THE BROTHERS GRIM

The brothers Grim, Jake and Dino Chapman, are at it again, writes Mrs. M. Having the last laugh that is. Creators of Hell, and now 'F***!!! Hell' at the White Cube Gallery, this artist duo is giving us more 'hell' for our millions, with a large dose of condescension for the public thrown in for good measure. They would like to have the public banned from their exhibitions. Interesting idea!

Equally, they disdain critics and museums, declaring the National Gallery as 'full of rubbish.' Apparently, they are quite sensitive about their nice, middle class upbringing, which doesn’t look good on their CV. They are playing the art game for all it is worth and finding it’s worth a lot. 'F***!!! Hell' sold for a reported £7.5, establishing their reputation as the 'must have' darlings of the avant guard. Being naughty boys is big business these days. Otherwise they would probably give it up.

If we all praised them as our favourite establishment icons, it might ruin their careers.
