Knowing artists that have done the blank canvas thing when invited to show work, they are often on board with your interpretation that it’s contrived and absurdly priced.
That our culture rewards such non-effort so generously is the set up.
“The mission” isn’t to make a statement. But to get a doofus with more money than brains to pay rent for no effort whatsoever so they can make art for themselves.
You haven’t even seen it and you had an emotional reaction enough to keep posting about it.
There’s no contrived setup required. You replied with a contrived setup about art the way you did. Others replied with a contrived setup about art the way they did.
Please explain how that amount of subjectivity in this story alone create a framework for objectively beautiful art?
Too many ways in which chemical loops in billions of brains can flow to suggest such a thing.
Whether you can based upon some theory of pure science doesn’t matter since it’ll end up a cognitively subjective answer.
- arexxbifs 6y agoThat's precisely what angries up my blood: If the doofus is going to pay for it, The Right People has to acknowledge it as art first. And if they do that, it's suddenly awarded significance it doesn't deserve, because, hey, it's art!
