In any case, yes I consider it art, for the same reason TheGlassface does. | ||

I went to visit the "modern museum" in Stockholm here in Sweden. And one thing that caught my eye was the figure of a goat, standing with a tennisball on top of its head. The museum guide told me that the ball stood for the artist's lost childhood. My mind was blown. "WHAT THE HELL!?" "Seriously!?" Where did all the good stuff go? Another major upset recently here in sweden was when the minister of culture visited the museum. Here they all had cake. The upset was that the cake was formed as a human being, a woman. When you cut the cake, the woman screamed and cried, to represent the genital mutilation that girls go through in Africa for example. Let's just say that the people didn't enjoy it all too much after it aired on national television. It seems that today art is only about chocking, enraging and upsetting. None of it ever makes you want to stop and think, and admire it anymore. It truly is a sad time to be alive, compared to say the 1800-1900's. Art-wise that is | ||

In their paintings you can always read something out of the artist, and you can always look at the paintings in a fresh perspective. This is of course to a large degree dependant on the eras and the mindset at the time, just like we are going through a phase right now with the modern art.

For the mindset at the time, yeah. Things may have stirred shit up. But i don't think that the level of eccentricity from 200 years ago (except for maybe Dali) can match the ones of today. | ||

What this piece of art is saying is that ALL human expression is essentially a waste by-product of being alive, and ultimately has little to no value. Basically, we shouldn't get too hung up out how we or other express ourselves because we're all just pointless shit machines and everything is bullshit anyways. Have a great day! | ||

Interesting, anyway...seeming as I don't actually understand what constitutes art and what doesn't in the first place, this doesn't really push the boundaries | ||
