In 2000 he repeated the feat in Milan at Laura Pecci Gallery, although this time the paintings were a variety of sizes. In 2003 he did 72 paintings in 72 hours at Brno House of Arts in the Czech Republic. The canvases this time being the same sizes as Goya painted between 1789 and 1815. He aimed with these shows to challenge the convention of painting being a slow process in the studio, and by working under extreme pressure to produce original paintings.

Retrieved 6 January 2009.〕 Joffe's exhibition "Beauty Show" at the V22 Gallery in London (January–February 2008) caused controversy due to its featuring a pastel painting of Heinrich Himmler, which was bought by Charles Saatchi. In 2009 Joffe, having left his gallery and been left by his girlfriend, sold all his possessions and paintings in "The Sale of a Lifetime" at Idea Generation Gallery in London. In May 2012 Joffe showed his paintings of actresses and dictators in a show titled "Power & Beauty" at Kenny Schachter Rove Gallery in Hoxton Square London.〔http://hackneycitizen.co.uk/2012/06/12/power-and-beauty-rove-gallery-hoxton/〕 Joffe is also the founder and regular contributor to the contemporary art and cultural reviews site worldwidereview which allows people from around the world open access to read and write criticism.
