Moment of silence please for the soon-to-be-demolished The Point, easily one of the rubbishest buildings in the world (and therefore worthy of our love)

why'd you choose MK, just out of interest?
also, it's Milton KEYNES

my former intern got offered a job at an MK gallery ,possibly the one in the first picture, but waffled because... milton keynes. (to put this in context, there are no paid entry-level art world positions at all, anywhere). to a londoner it's always going to seem a comical place, but i feel a bit bad for it now i know the whole rest of the world laughs too.

i'm just going by what whiny millennials say to me, but they do say it a lot.

[ratchetkoala]

this is good, but the only downside for me is that i have to fetch my own coffee these days, so 'despair' is probably too strong a word

[ratchetkoala]

[pirxthepilot]

eh i can't do it, last time i told him it wasn't working out he just stood by the gate for two whole days 'til i relented.

things have gotten progressively dire, lads

[rjbman]

is this art?

[kickingthefly]

never liked this thread much tbh, why denigrate regional art scene? i fully support provincial galleries (but obviously never visit them)

A.J. (who is the art world's biggest star rn) credits his whole career to adobe bridge here, surprised some enterprising #marketer should pick up on this
