"Modern art is stupid crap!" is like the "rap sucks" opinion of the art world. It's people cherry picking poo poo they don't like and then applying a blanket statement across an impossibly broad and variegated medium, kind of how all centrists are centrists because claiming you're above it all is a pretty foolproof (in their mind) stance to take when you're deliberately ignorant as poo poo.

This banana was an obvious joke. Doesn't have poo poo to do with the fucktons of other people creating significantly more traditional and typical works and installations, but that would require going to a local museum with rotating installations and it's easier to fart out moron words on your keyboard to posture than to actually figure out what's going on.

We've validated irrelvent, as relevent in the art community and that's essentially led to people poo poo-posting in the art community. In my view.

Would a New York based performance artists consider eating a banana taped to the wall in your home? There's a few other things going on here but I think that's truly the best metric to tell if you have stolen this piece of art work or not.

The cool thing about art is that you can make up whatever you want as the explanation for why it's art. Did the stupid loving banana get eaten? Yeah of course it did that was (retroactively) THE POINT

Yeah, "My kid could've done that" is a pretty cringe worthy statement when you think about it. Its okay if you don't "get" a Rothko but there are plenty of people who do. A lot of it boils down to taste. The "my kid could do that" crowd suggests that the only thing important in art is photographic realism. It's like saying a musician is better because they can play more notes in a shorter period of time. Its how you end up with insufferable turds like Yngvie Malmsteen

That's what I'm saying. The guy isn't paying $120,000 for a banana. The banana get replaced. He just paid $120k for a lifetime supply of bananas. As long as he stays near that wall.

So I looked at this Rothko, I am bad at the art so had never heard his name before.

I mean, it is pretty obvious to me which of his paintings is art and which is poo poo.
I think you will see my point and lol at feeling something for the latter.

The absolute saddest poo poo is people who try to defend modern art. No, it's actually cultured and interesting, I know it must be because the rich are into it and told me so! They defy the evidence of their own eyes and minds to insist that yes, actually, the emperor does have clothes.
They don't even get anything out of it, they're just like sad low-level scientologists who aren't in on the joke and honestly try to believe that garbage.
