The one thing I like about Syd, is that his art/music to me is very personal. He exposes so much of himself, unlike other superstars we know of. Thats why his legacy has endured, and continues to flourish.
I heard Syd threw away or burned some of his paintings. What amazes me is after pink floyd or after mad cap recordings"(probably much later) Syd starts to remodel the house he grew up in. Replacing door handles with toys.
Quote by ROGER KEITH "SYD" BARRETT ~ "Well, I'm a painter, I was trained as a painter...I seem to have spent a little less time painting than I might've done."
My loss- never pushed past the hype.He was a VERY talented artist. I would love to have his work on my walls,not just the great music to get lost in.And Yoko still pushing Lennon's childish doodles ?
@@davidtomsovic9991 You can see on some of the titles who owns them. Jenny Spires for example. I believe that this exhibition was made shortly after his death. There was also an auction of some of this stuff(including his bikes, his armchair and some other DIY things from his house) I'm pretty sure that his family sold most of what they had. Perhaps they kept some of these things as memories and mementos, but they were his family and not his fans after all.
Очередная жертва LSD, а точнее жертва стереотипов. Расширение сознания и прочая хрень. Чтобы заглянуть в себя, нет никакой необходимости прибегать к разного рода препаратам сомнительного свойства. Искренне жаль этого человека!
Very sorry to say so, but he was a much much MUCH better musician ( even genial) than a painter. The watercolors are plain amateurish. The abstracts like wallpaper. The bouquets mediocre. It is good for him he enjoyed painting.
@Yusuf Shaikh There are some basic standards concerning techniques, craftsmanship and sincere attention in art. Mannerism and lust for money are always visible for people with an honest heart and eyes that see....not watch. .
@Yusuf Shaikh Such nonsense people can't judge. You yourself are judging daily. Everybody does. A judge has to judge. There are high standards. If you want to dump them....go ahead. I never will. If you had read my comment in a proper way you could have known i do not doubt his joy in painting. Many people love to collect stamps ....or count cars.
