Reviews

“Don’t Piss on Me and Tell Me It’s Raining”     L Magazine May 2010

“Some names we recognize and like: Guerra De La Paz, Jeremy Deller, Tony Fitzpatrick, Liam Gillick, Christopher Hudgens and William Powhida.”

“Don’t Piss on Me and Tell Me It’s Raining”     Chris Bors,     ArtReview May 2010

“The liveliest work on view, however, is in apexart’s window, where a monitor shows animated credits listing Bad at Sports’s contributors. Created by B@S member Christopher Hudgens in the style of designer and filmmaker Saul Bass, well known for his masterful film titles, the retro graphics, limited animation and jazz soundtrack mesh seamlessly, while managing to get in a dig at Flood for good measure.”
