Hot on the heels of the whole Time magazine shpeel, ArtHeat's moles report a Danny K sighting at the Goodman Cape; allegedly browsing for Kentridges.
I ❤ the South African art market.

what Time Magazine shpeel?
this shpeel. (Note the link)
I can't think why Kentridge looks so glum every time I see him: if i was signing sheets of Hannemuhle with nebulous doodles on them, and hawking them for thousands each time, I'd be a lot more cheery.
But you can imagine the conversation at The GG:
Staff: Hi, can we help you sir?
Danny K: Yees, um Aaa'd laak to osk eef you have eni KENTRIDGES for sayle?
Staff: Erm, certainly sir, if you could just give us your details so we could run a full credit check on you...
DK: Lussin, do youse know who Aaa em?
Staff: Um, no, I'm sorry sir, I don't...
DK: Aaam Denny Kayee, bru..
Staff: I'm guessing from Joburg...
DK: I seng that song your cheek digs, 'Hey Shorty'...
Staff: oh. I thought that was Justin Timberlake...
Dk: Fuckit, bruuuu, that's not fikkin Justin, hey. That's ME. Aaa've got a TOTALLY dufferent siound...*whispers* fuckin' justin can kees maa oars...
Staff: Okay, well sir, I apologise. Now back to those Kentridges...
DK: naah, fuckit, I'm too cross now. Lemme take a look at something about the sufferin of others to cheer me up.
Staff: okay, well, if you'd step this way I could show you our range of Subotzky's...
it takes two winner's to draw fir from two anony mous losers!
Anonymous 9:51 just made my day. Thank you.
From Time Magazine artist of the year to being bought by Danny K... does this man's soaring trajectory know no limits?
Apart from being achieving enormous success, Kentridge and K, are ....? Jewish! Just trying to understand the venom...
Danny K (full name Daniel Koppel, born 8 September 1977) is a versatile South African singer, songwriter and actor. He holds a B.A. degree from the Wits University. He has produced some chart topping hits and award winning albums.
He is one of the first South African musicians to perform on the Oprah Winfrey show in Chicago with guest like Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, Josh Groban and John Travolta appearing on the same day.
Danny has tourned and performed with many renowned international acts including: Usher, Craig David, P Diddy, Ladysmith Black Mombazo, Eric Benet, Bob Geldof, U2, Queen and Beyonce.
He is also one of only 5 South African acts chosen to perform at Nelson Mandela's 46664 concert at the Green Point Stadium, Cape Town, South Africa which was broadcast to 3 billion people worldwide.
Danny has also performed for the opening of the ICC World Cup as well as for Nelson Mandela and Oprah Winfrey and Madiba's annual birthday party in Qunu in Transkei, South Africa. [1]
On 7 July 2007 Danny K performed at the South African leg of Live Earth.
Amazing that all those important people couldn't see what the record-buying public outside of Bedfordview can.
It's cool that danny k reads this blog and also comments on it.
I'm sure it just popped up while he was Googling his name and wanking.
interesting... wonder if Kentridge buys Danny K?
and ... Elton John bought Kentridges, does Elton buy Dannys? does Danny buy Eltons.
I thought that Danny Kaye died years ago. He was a silly actor and a worse singer, and made less money than Walt Disney. Walt Disney bought Danny Kaye.
BUT DANNY KAYE DID NOT BUY WILLIAM KENTRIDGE. HE WANTED TO & THEN DIED, PREMATURELY.
this all seems like cheap pr for danny's pr, does artheat do it for danny's pr like collisons does it for bell roberts
