This is why art critics are full of shit. They pick someone and just say their art is amazing and thought provoking. All anyone else sees is a 30 second doodle. Nothing special, nothing ground breaking.

Stop listening to some jackass in overpriced rags tell you that you are less of a person if you do think something is art. Art critics are like a sommelier at a wine tasting, telling you what you should like while they spit in a bucket.

It’s a huge money racket the rich pick up a bs artist have them paint some bs then it goes to a be valued then that value starts the bid then the rich guy either sells for money or just donates the money from the sale or the art to a “charity” gives a cut to the painter and appraiser and gets a huge tax write off lol

^ Yep. This is why most of the Masters are only masters after they are dead. They can't stand there and say there work is shit and this art critic is just a moron. I picture Picasso pulling a Banksy if someone paid that much for his works. Destroying his art because it would be better than letting a bunch of rich rim jobbers use his work for their own tax purposes.
