Anything that's in the Saatchi collection, I want

One of those like those blood heads you know, those frozen blood heads filled with blood




To Artists, Curators and Collectors, take note, Edina Monsoon explains on the etiquette of buying a work of modern art. Some of the paintings in this clip may be that of Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat. The circumstances which lead Jean-Michel Basquiat to Andy Warhol was his persistence and of Warhol's exploitation of his unique ability.

Gallery attendant: Can I help you?

Eddie: No, I want to buy some art

Gallery attendant: Have you seen something here?

Eddie: No, I don’t know, I just want to get some

Eddie: What else you’ve got?


Gallery attendant: Well we are a specialist galley, perhaps if you knew what you were looking for, I could help you

Eddie: Is there someone else who can help me?

Eddie: Ah yea, I want to uh buy some art, I am a collector, I want to collect some modern stuff

Curator : Please come down stairs, we’ll see what we can do

Eddie: You only work in a shop you know, you can drop the attitude

Curator: it is the quality and texture of the brush strokes, we like to believe the artist managed to cast of and nurture to overcome and continue renewal of himself.

Eddie: I do know this crap

Curator: I understood you where a collector

Eddie: I am, I am a serious collector, I not interested with artistic value, I just want how much this will be worth in twenty years time

Curator : Oh I see, why did you not say so, I be showing you the completely new modern stuff

Eddie: Or this, this, I want to see figures, I want to see figures. And like there here too, these shoes, and the televisions, I like, its nice, televisions, there. Also, one of those like those blood heads you know, those frozen blood heads filled with blood. Any thing that's in the Saatchi collection, I want everything like that alright

Eddie: I just want everything, everything.

Eddie: It all looks like bollocks so it must be worth something
