Shitist Bog Mission
Sunday 10th Sept 2006

Following In The FOOTSTEPS OF THE FUTURISTS
Today sunday the 10th september mad lunatic shits went bogging around on their first bog mission to populate all the London bogs from Kings Cross to Embankment with the highest shit possible. Victory was attained with the shits managing to conquest over fifteen bogs with our thirty pieaces of shit. THE WORLD WILL BE OURS .............ENJOY. And we had to do something rather shit or naff like the normal every movement collective gimick.
There is a toilet based international movement that just deals with bog art called 'Toilet Art' that was formed in 2003, though the futurists were first, that I recently found out about on the web. But this is in no way a rip off, as shitism is about much more and bogging about, and was a one off thing (not the whole movements ethos).
Slide-pictures from the that day are now featured on: www.myspace.com/shitism_2
If Bogging about is your thing check out toiletspacejackers.org who make a profession out of it.

YOU ARE SHIT, SHIT, SHIT - quote anon famous Artist and ex lover of shit.

*** NOTE *** The above image was removed by Photobucket as Shitism had allegedly flouted some regulations about content that isn't acceptable. Rules are fine but censorship is not. Shitism was under the illusion that the internet had freedom of expression...perhaps not as it would seem!
Shit quote Shitism Because Art Is The Only Form Of Freedom In Society And Should Hold No Ego
It will be interesting to see if this piece of work featured below escapes the censors. Bring it on...

Shitism was Formed In London 15th August 2006

The Shitist Manifesto

A guide to the greatness of the masterly genius that is SHITISM.
We are the shitists we will honour till death our radical ideals of shitism to the end and obey shitisms ethics till death do part us in our maggot infested graves.

Shitist Beliefs

1/ As shitists we will aim to abolish destroy in all art the Beige face though a little pink is o.k, this is not Art, ie. as it holds no originally or imagination, and has not been since the expressionists or impressionists about a hundred years ago. Cutting edge, yes all Beige face to be outlawed.
2/ We will create art whether it be conceptual or painting a diverse range of shit rather than fraggling around on the saatchi debate site or having a wet wuzzy five Pratt or ten pillocks at the most with tea flasks protests outside the Tate. As the shitists drink is not tea its J.D and shitists firmly believe in the need to by any means possible get off ones tits, not freezing ones tits off outside the white cube regularly.
3/ We will campaign to save more local art spaces for artists, so we will have more affordable spaces and save such spaces from elitist privatisation.
4/ We will hold prayer sessions and give praise to Chris Offili’s ‘Monkey God,’ with offerings of elephant dung daily.
5/ Like the futurists our main career accolade will be to exhibit in the public shitist lavatory.
6/ A shitist is not a genius he or she instead takes pride in being Shit.
7/ Shitism is not a hyporcrital movement and we thoroughly believe that actions should be practiced and not just talked about as if anything shitism is honest.
8/ Shitsts do not degrade or shit on other artists work instead we concentrate on being pureshit ourselves.
9/ Shitists have no style or technique of one form dictated to by the movement therefore all art is shit and we aim not to condemn artists to one form of shitism and explore all aspects of shitism freely.
10/ There are no leaders of Shitism, as shitism is equal and firmly believes in every bodies shit being valid in a free shitist world.
11/ As shitists we are individuals in our shit first and part of a radical shit movement secondary.
12/ Shitists believe everything is art even shit.
13/ The shitists firmly believe in uncensorship of all shit
14/ Shitism does not require to be taken SERIOUSLY it aims to be only shit.
15/ A Shitist must in all aspects have a sense of humour and feel the true honour of being able to wear the badge of being shit.
16/ Shitists most be nonconformist and always posses plenty of fuck you attitude.
17/ The Shitist theme song to party to will be ‘The Man Don’t Give A Fuck’ by The Super Furry Animals cause all shitists really don’t ever give a fuck about anything.
18/ We will only ever, even if we become infamous or famous, show in public libraries or spaces to give access to everybody, and if anybody even highclass artsnob society is interested eventually in our shit they will have to put on their Prada and mix with the average Joe gutter rat bloggs in the street. Power to the people right on.
19/ Captalism does not have any place, or elitism in our shitist world.
20/Shitists believe on all rewards being given on talent, on the merit on the strength of all our shit not on class, connections, art school attended, sucking up to or sleeping with elite individuals or over hyped media exposure but because their shit stands up in its own right on its own terms.
21/In Shitism appearance is none important therefore shitism is not limited to the beautiful young artist stereotype, and pouting is non essential though producing interesting thought provoking shit is.
22/ A shitist does not believe in cheap media attention seeking gimmicks as shits feel this detracts from the shitist producing valid shit and over media hype leads to less valid production of groundbreaking Historical shit.
23/ A Shitist does not follow the fads of Art style of painting or installation Art of a certain time, fashion means nothing, fashions come and go. Instead shits remain true to themselves in exploring new techniques styles concepts within their shit to create the next big shit thing of their time.
24/ A Shitist never follows, a Shitist always in the art world and stretching the boundaries of acceptability leads.
25/ As shitists our concerns are not for Fame or money and even if neither thing, which drives the western world, existed, the shitist creating shit would still remain.
26/ There is no gender superioty in Shitism and the female shitist are considered just as valid in their shit as their shitist male counterparts.
27/ A shitist can never be establishment even if notoriety in our shit is gained.
28/ Unlike a large precentage of artists, the Shits do not share an obsession for Charles Saatchi. As the shits feel it is a far more productive use of time creating shit than bothering to be obsessed with all this. In fact the shits are indifferent to Saatchi.
29/ The Shits have not middleclass aspirations to success ie the meaning of life as a artist is to sell art for high prices or end up in The Tate both things would be nice but as long as shit is being created , a shit feels successful and happy.
30/ As shitists we are humble and always will remain so taking pride in our shit roots.
This is the Shitist manifesto and was created by a group of artists consisting of gutter rats and troublemaking trollops, in a bohemian underground smoky fleapit hovel, in a haze of the vision, spliff, whitelightening and 20/20. That is shitism.
