Poll: What do you think about "art"?

**Bridge** · 07-06-2013, 05:29 PM

There is nothing wrong with the stylistic trends that are abound in modern art, it's just that a very large portion of the artists making it have no business calling themselves artists in the first place. In 200 years people will look at modern art as just another thing that contributed to the overall history of art, and the truly great works that have been and continue to be created will be remembered.

So, my answer is none of the poll options, but I think the 20th century and what we've seen of the 21st century so far has produced some of the most colorful and interesting music yet and I've seen some paintings I like (but I'm not really into that kind of "art" to any serious degree).

Can someone explain to me why that art piece is so prestigious?

It really doesn't have anything to do with art. As has been hilariously demonstrated on several occasions, most of the big name art critics have no idea what they're talking about so one thing leads to another and bam, you're famous. It's just politics.

EDIT: Only temporarily of course.
