Launched in late 2000, Art Sucks.com started out as a single-author blog
chronicling the New York commercial art world through the eyes of a
22-year-old, baby-faced art school grad with a lifelong penchant for
journaling. In the ten years since its inception, the blog has matured
along with the now 32-year-old bewhiskered author. The articles, although
similar in style, now trend toward following and critiquing the convergence
of fine art, pop culture, and commercial art in the 21st century.
Art Sucks.com is written and was conceived by Cojo “Art Juggernaut,” a
Gen-Y Artistic Pop-Zeitgeist who can regularly be seen trudging the streets
of Manhattan artistically documenting his curious experiences. He gruffly
gnaws on the big rotten apple for all its worth, getting drunk on the
cider one blog post at a time.
Art Sucks is a true-life take on the clichéd starving artist as he finds
himself caught in the interminable struggle to find his voice and place in
today’s constantly changing New York art scene.
Now a seasoned art blogger, Cojo is still as determined as ever,
possessing a decade of blogging and life experience under his belt.
Accompanied by his girlfriend Molly, a 25-year-old stage actress, Cojo has
realized that his greatest challenges are still to come. Is the art world
ready for another successful commercial illustrator to try to carve a name
for himself in the walls of fine art like Warhol and Rosenquist before him?
