If you are stacking boxes simply so that people can look at the boxes and think about how well they’re stacked. Stacking the boxes was art.
If it’s you’re job to stack boxes, and you’re really fast and efficient at it. Well good for you. You’re great at your job. And we might be amazed and impressed. But it’s not art.
Exactly it is a skill that creates said art. Nothing wrong with appreciating skill.
It’s not the skill.
skill is an artform
It’s the purpose.
I can pick up a pencil right now and draw a stick figure man pooping into a teacup.
That’s art.
It’s really *bad* art. But it’s art.
perhaps this whole theory of 'art' is totally subjective?
No wonder art sucks nowadays when everyone make everything an art.
lol
are is indeed a social construct
If I am cleaning out one of the bins at work and spill iron oxide all over some scrap cardboard... it might land in such a way to create a beautiful pattern that everyone adores.
It’s not art. It’s an accident.
Nah that's art
... but if it commands a price - it's art!
You have to decide to create a thing that has no purpose other than be appreciated and judged *as* art.
I laid a massive shit the other day. Art.
Then you are making art.
Lol
I gotta go make dinner.
of course, stacking boxes can command a price too (in the form of a wage) - so you know, whatever
Thanks for that image as I go.
I just remembered there were japanese performers literally doing construction work as an art performance trending on vine and youtube a couple years ago
hey guys
niggers.

Art is gay
depends
but mostly nowadays
yeh
Why do people hate on that ballwax guy? I dont like the government, cops, courts, public roads existing, but so long as it does, it should be consistent. And you cant deny service on the basis of race, so why whould you be able to on the basis of sex?
must be weird for an alien to come down... see the progression of art right up to the renaissance period and then suddenly like... wtf happen?
whut?
You think art stopped progressing after that?
We didnt even have tentacle porn in the renaissance.
we also didn't have retards like you
There's a lot of art and not all of it is bad the good stuff is what gets remembered
you cant look at the intricate details of renaissance statues and paintings... the painstaking details and time it took... then look at a broken urinal and say "dis art" and think thats progress?
Art barely progressed until the Renaissance, its been since then that art has properly exploded
The whole point of the post modernist stuff is hur dur anything can be art so here's some trash now worship it because its all a construct
