I'm sure there's a video on YouTube of some fella that buys a canvas from Wilko's or similar for a few quid and puts it in an art exhibition and then films various critics giving their analysis. At the end he tells them the crack to their embarrassment.

Art should require skill....that's real skill not perceived or imaginary skill

I seem to remember something similar being done with young children's art work some years back. I think maybe they got the opinions of some well known 'critics' :-)

Wish I had time to get round galleries. But id say seeing a photo of something and seeing it in 'the flesh' are 2 different ambiances..

I like to when I can........but I lack patience, I make up my mind in a second whether I'm interested or not & crack on!

Unlike my mrs who is slow as fcuk.........I'll be waiting by the exit while she's half way round..haha

 

...& now with little kids it's a major effort!

Dunno but you could bet the dustman would take it if the scrap was indeed art.

Maybe I've just no culture about me but I just don't get the modern art stuff at all. Some stuff is nice to look at, and I do appreciate there's some pieces which display skilled craftsmanship, but in the main I can't get into it. It's maybe because I think I could do it myself, whereas a lifelike painted portrait or landscape shows a real talent which only a few possess.

Saying that..., On Sunday I stood with my 7 year old in front of Van Gogh's 'chair' in the national gallery. The lad reckoned it was rubbish ?
