“Eric Trich: omg!”

HotRodLincoln, anonymous:

BUYER BEWARE! While the Art4PJ is a good cause; Eric Trich 'extraordinary'-ism is a facade created by (CON)artist Siros.

His previous shows have NOT sold out, he doesn't have collectors world-wide, there is no SGA in London, etc. Mr Trich is no different from any college art student with just a very short resume. Every reference to SGA, the London-Tokyo group, Siros & Trich and collector SHILLS come up blank on any internet search....hmmm why is that?

Why comment? Because especially people have the right to know the truth and avoid being a victim of fraud. Buy if you like...just don't spend more than a couple hundred dollars. Otherwise you'll be very disappointed when you later get it appraised.

Am I correct in assuming that you are "Titus O."?

HotRodLincoln, anonymous:

Lol, no you are not correct. Titus isn't the only one who is calling BS on the 'famous'(can't find any images of his work) mentor Siros...just that Titus has the biggest cahones. Many, MANY people in the Dallas art community refuse to be associated with these two. And why? Not because they're outcasts like so many great artists before their time...because they're BLATENT liars. There are a hundred better artists in the DFW area alone and it sickens me to see people defrauded...especially in this economic climate...ala Madoff.

Speaking of Titus O., here's a link to his blog

http://titusobrien.com/blog/?p=328

where he writes at length about his experience dealing with these conmen. He's not the only one to write about them, but he's written the most. It's pretty funny, except that these Siros and Trich people's tactics are so gross.

They threatened his magazine's editor with death if she didn't pull his stories unraveling a bunch of their claims - fake collections, collectors, fake news stories, etc. Which worked, unfortunately - they were removed from Glasstire (the original source). Hardly anything they claim was true, making even any of Trich's actual, modest accomplishments totally suspect.

Now you can't even find any mention of them on this church's website. Does anyone know if they took the show down out of embarrassment?

It doesn't take much to conclude that Titus seems embittered with Eric Trish's up and coming fame in the art scene. Is it that hard to respect new views on contemporary art?? This is clearly a case of Traditional versus contemporary art. Titus has enough time on his schedule to ridicule Trich's art and dedicates his itinerary to post enumerated amount of blogs all of which lack a valid arguing point. If all art work according to Titus's critiques were the same he'd probably still sit and write lengthily articles discrediting artists. I have yet to come across a breathtaking art piece from Titus. Give Eric his spotlight and stop steering the light beams your way. Young talent such as Eric Trich's needs to supported not broken.

P.s. ...And he's (tito) probably hovering over his computer reading this...Haha

I guess I'm not surprised that people continually perpetrate art to turn it over for a buck. Titus is absolutely right about Trich and Siros. It's actually kind of funny to think how hard they try to maintain whatever reputation they think they have, however pathetic it may be.

what fame? No website, no galleries, no shows, no mention anywhere but in Titus' stories? Siros, your English gives you away yet again. That, and still banging this Titus drum all these months later...no one else gives a sh*t. Except those currently suing you.
