Modern Art is Sh*t

When you get into the categorical denouncing business around something as subjective as "art," you remind me of Eric the Green and his pronouncements of so-called "truths."

Art, as hard as it is to adequately define, appears to be something that is a core feature of our species.  The stuff, both "good" and "bad", whatever that means just keeps coming.

My thought is that "art" probably comes about when the artist achieves some level of self-actualization.  The product itself is simply an expression.  In the case of charlatans in the field, which I agree should include hacks like Kincade, they're simply in it for the money and are taking advantage of folks who don't want to spend any effort on studying or understanding artisitc expression.

Tara is probably right.  This topic is likely only bait designed to satisfy your delight in simply arguing with people!

Maybe, maybe not.  However, there are objective standards as to what is good and what is bad, as I said on the old forum.

But I think I'll leave this video here....





I must say it is interesting that modern art museums have difficulty keeping their doors open with their tacky and trashy garbage while traditional art museums are doing just fine.
