That doesn’t make sense. Show a kid 2 paintings they’ve never seen before. Show it to them in isolation. Guess which one they pick?

- watwut 5y agoHow would that prove there is no sociological aspect? Or that people don't use taste as in-group signaling?
- nepeckman 5y agoI'm almost positive most kids would pick a Lisa Frank piece over the Mona Lisa. Are you trying to make the point that bright colors, rainbows, and unicorns are the highest form of art?
- watwut 5y agoTo be fair, Mona Lisa as general go to example of bestest painting is on itself a proof that taste is socially constructed.
- nepeckman 5y agoI agree with you, and view my comment as complementing yours by refuting the parent, rather than making a value judgement on Lisa Frank's work. Apologies if I missed the mark there!
