I’m back lol
Anyone want to hop in voice as I walk back to my dorm so I can tell the story?
>tfw no falafel zine gf
Still trying to figure out the voice setting w my phone.
Saw some "anti-art" at school today
Needs a sign that says "not trash"
yeah, i was laffin
I would love to see what your could actually hide in an art gallery, like actual bags of rancid garbage with "art" written on it
Oh shit, I knew I left my collection of 37 melted extra large candles somewhere!
Thanks @godric
not trash: recyclable
I went to the Chicago museum of art and it was full of this garbage.
@godric exactly. Recycled into a frame for something I could draw with my feet would be far better.
If an "artist" can't produce photorealism with a brush and canvas they should be flogged with a cat of nine tails - figuratively- and banished to mining colonies
I am not opposed to impressionism or even abstract art, but this shit is retarded.
Underlying understanding and mastery of skill is necessary to express ideas beyond the bounds of it, in my humble estimation
@metasophocles so many art students I've met can't draw a hand or basic facial features.
@metasophocles in 99.9% of cases I agree. I think the filmmaker Mdotstrange did a lot of good stuff, even though he is not particularly technically skilled though.
it's tragic to look at what was produced all through the reniessance to now. And how sort of a time it took.
Short*
The funny thing is how many people openly agree from all walks of life that modern art is hideous trash, while anyone can enjoy and be taken in by the beauty of a gothic cathedral, or renaissance art
Beauty is the natural order, we know how to express it
bioleninism man
ugly people project ugliness onto everything
but I would never call a whole group of people ugly; everyone is beautiful. you are beautiful. love yourself.
Beyonce's music video for the apt named "Apesh*t" is a good example of most people's position on Europeans.
Sadly I heard that modern art was a Pozed project of le CIA in reaction to socialist realism
What is socialist realism?
Traditional soviet artworks meant for mass inspiration
It was actually terrifically beautiful
I think of the usual blocky stuff when I think of soviet propaganda. I didn't know they had a realist style.
@metasophocles wasn't there a thing about JBP owning this art in some photo shoot?
Let me try an find an example
@PatrickAZ I am not sure
This is an example that comes to mind
how pleasant
JBP, for all his flaws, does wink just enough to entice the person already looking that direction.
Indeed he has alot to offer a mind that has nuance
