IS CELEBRATED AS ELITE
is it? It is celebrated by insular clubs as superior, but it isn't widely accepted as being quality or elite or superior
whereas modern art is, even if people don't appreciate it
the situation woud be similar if you had that war metal stuff
and on top of that everyone acknowledged that war metal was the bees knees
while not liking it or getting it
I don't see that as the case
THOSE WHO APPRECIATE MODERN ART
ARE A SMALL QUASI-ELITE
BASED ON THE COMMERCIAL VALUE OF THE ART
BECAUSE EVEN IF PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE IT, THEY DEFER TO IT
AND MARGINALIZE THOSE WHO DO NOT
FOR EXAMPLE US
I think that's the main difference, the deference
BUT TAKE THE BLACK METAL EXAMPLE
(DEFERENCE = THE DEMOCRATIZATION; CANNOT OPPOSE WHAT THE HERD LIKES!)
the imposition of the standard as default is what makes it different from simply clubs putting shit on pedestals
why would you say herd to a top down phenomenon?
herd effects may keep the illusion going
where normal people police themselves in keeping up the facade
HERDS CREATE TOP-DOWN PHENOMENA
OUT OF THEIR PREFERENCES
WHICH ARE MOSTLY DESIGNED TO AVOID WHAT OFFENDS THEM
NORMAL PEOPLE ARE MOSTLY INERT TO ART ANYWAY
THEY LIKE SIMPLE SONGS, PRETTY PAINTINGS, NICE ARCHITECTURE
THIS IS WHY ARCHITECTURE IS QUEEN OF THE ARTS
REGULAR PEOPLE CAN APPRECIATE IT
BECAUSE ITS FUNCTION IS APPARENT
with dalits, all is about apparence
we need to acknowledge the realities of art nowadays
im not saying "modern art" mind you because modern art ceased to be contemporary
modern art is the art of the past century
nowadays, we are in the era of proper dissolution of the art as a form
the so called high art today is nothing but a class signalling tool for bourgeoisie and jews
the so called rebellious art is *passe*
as evola curiously noted in his last interview, the so called "abstract" art ceased to have the "existential' function it had for the artists back in 1920s and 1930s
we have today a completet and total artistic nihilism, where everything in art ceased to have any proper meaning
and this is a reality, not a personal estimate of the contemporary's art value
one must differentiate between the two
so since no art today has or is capable of being valuable to anybody, lacking, just as society, any reference points
