Why Anish Kapoor is banned from world's pinkest paint

  • I'm sharing the world's pinkest pink with everyone except Anish Kapoor.
    Hi Everyone, I've just released my own brand of pink paint, ‘PINK’, it's the world’s pinkest pigment. PINK is available from:www.culturehustle.com to everyone but Anish Kapoor.
    Artist Anish Kapoor famously acquired exclusive rights to use the world’s blackest black in his art. Developed by NanoSystems, ‘Vantablack’ is composed of a series of microscopic vertical tubes. When light strikes Vantablack, it is continually deflected between the tubes, becoming trapped. The pigment is currently the blackest substance known - so dark that it absorbs 99.96 per cent of light.
    Although originally developed for military and astronomic purposes, NanoSystems subsequently confirmed that Kapoor alone had been authorised to use the pigment for artistic purposes. And as Jonathan Jones began when he wrote on the subject for The Guardian, “Colour is precious”.
    I don't think it's really very fair! We all remember kids at school who wouldn’t share their colouring pencils, but then they ended up on their own with no friends. It’s cool, Anish can have his black. But the rest of us will be playing with the rainbow!
    PINK is a highly reflective and rich powdered paint pigment, which repels light to effect a powerful fluorescence. I really hope to make it available to as many painters as possible.
    Purchasers of PINK will be required to make a legal declaration during the online checkout process though, confirming that: “you are not Anish Kapoor, you are in no way affiliated to Anish Kapoor, you are not purchasing this item on behalf of Anish Kapoor or an associate of Anish Kapoor. To the best of your knowledge, information and belief this paint will not make its way into that hands of Anish Kapoor.”
    If you order some from culturehustle.com I hope you love it. And please if you get a chance tell @anishkapoor_art to #ShareTheBlack
    Thank you!
    Stuart x

      @Encentix 6 лет назад +69

      Suri ViruS the problem lies in the fact that this greedy wannabe artist is willingly excluding people from using a tool of artistic expression. It is not about creating something alone. It’s about the fact that you are stripping away the right for all people on earth except one person to use a material which is not only insulting to the art community but also looks extremly selfish and entitled. Exclusion is a shitty thing to do and while it isn’t illegal it still is showing something only a neanderthal with a very low amount of intelligence would do cause it is so clearly unfair and stupid.

    The point is most pf us understand vantablack isnt a pigment or a paint. Its use is mostly for scientific purposes. I think it can be pretty toxic too? The point is not to sell to everyone. The thing it, if this substance is not suited for art, then why you give it to an artist?? Just because he is popular? Because he has millions of $ ?
    Then why not give it to every artis who has that kind of money ?
    Thats the thing.

    I understand that if you invest money into developing a colour you would like to cover the cost/ make some money out of it... but I think a real artist would want the colour available to everyone, because the point of art is that it brings joy, curiosity and love to everyone! It should not be restricted to a select few. Good on you for developing the pinkest pink and making it available to everyone.

    We are told by Tom Scott that Pinkest Pink can not truly be conveyed over most screens or standard video. Is this due to RGB and bit depth only or can CMY represent it? I have no use for pink anything but even over Scott's video hints of the intensity of PP was sneaking through, like radioactive Pepto-Bismol. Unlike regular pink, which gets on my nerves, PP looks comforting and soothing. I will be able to resume my frivilous spending habits June and look forward to buying a little of everything you have invented. That blue looks very soothing as well. I love your dedication to the science.

Look at me sharing ideas, its as if im trying to make the world a better place. Maybe Anish could follow along and help make the world a more beautiful place for all.

      Than why give it to an artist and let said artist expose the paintings to the plastic?

    Long short, Anish Kapoor is unfairly lucky (hoki). That's why we hate him (envy).
    And btw, would like to have Cyanest, Magentaest, Yellowest, and Blackest (something else that the f proprietary Vantablack) for printer.
    1:04 what? So he can sue me e.g. if I access Vantablack on my sellable Print? D'fk!
    1:15 #sharetheblack !!! I hate Proprietarism. Adding Anish Kapoor to Kepahitan (Bitterness, a.k.a. perma-ban or hateness prime)
