Watching newsnight review.

They refer to the work of a particular artist as "self referential".

Does this really mean that he ran out of ideas and just did the same work over and over again?

Re: Translation Please
Perhaps a it means that "the work refers to the artist" i.e. some element of his persona or something that happened in his life.

Is that just too simple though?

No, I think that's correct.

Re: Translation Please
Sure it wasn't self-reverential?

Anyway, someone needs to kill Janet Street Porter.

I've seen worse. The Newsnight Review people are only part-way up their own arses.

Re: Translation Please
Self-referential means referring to itself. So the work refers to itself. Though this can mean referring to the context, like referring to the artist. The Simpsons is often self-referential for example, when characters refer to cartoons or to Fox.
