Totally. But, what's with everyone in the article being so grandiose about it.
I never felt like I just "didn't get art" until reading the quotes in this article.
- christophilus 4y agoWhen I’m around certain artsy friends, I sometimes feel like the kid from “The Emperor’s New Clothes”.
- ggm 4y ago99% of them hate that you just like it or not. Sometimes the analysis is pointless. Stick to your guns. In the best possible sense and with no intended patronising notes: "you do you"
- egypturnash 4y agoThere is a lot of art whose major criteria is “does it make the uninitiated feel that way”. Anything that makes you want to say “My kid could do this!” probably falls into this category, and it is probably attached to an absurdly large price tag that makes you start wondering how much of its value is simply as a tax dodge for some obscenely rich person.

- 2muchcoffeeman 4y agoIs that not enough? This guy had some vision and then spent 50 years figuring out how to make it work and how to look after it after his death. There’s a thread about running Diablo in a browser that has positive remarks. But if you think about that a bit it’s also ridiculous.
- grapeskin 4y agoArticles are mostly promo pieces. The artist’s press team sends some quotes they want writers to use, and they tweak the wording. Same with launch articles about any other content—movies, games, whatever.
