Maybe bullshit doesn’t make the art grow profounder after all
Verbose descriptions accompanying artworks do not significantly enhance perceptions of their profundity or attractiveness. This finding challenges the notion that complex narratives always enrich the artistic experience.
"study finds subjective experiences are not absolute and universal"
I had a huge argument with art curator over how a wall a black is not art. Got in face about how if it's that easy I should just do it. I'm like bruh I did it in My room as a child. Modern art is soo pathetic.
Arguing with people that something "isn't art" is what's pathetic. Art is subjective. Maybe let people enjoy what they enjoy instead of being a massive bellend about it
I don't care someone likes a accent wall. My issue is no one deserves a pat on the back for something people do regularly. Do something special if you want to be remembered for your art. More upset with the people who enable this. I met way better artists in college that won't ever get thier dreams come true and this dude gets "famous" Tragedy is the only wat to describe this.
I mean, if that's the example you're going for.... It's actually quite easy to imitate Van Gogh, yet everyone has a reproduction somewhere at home. The fact that it's easy to imitate doesn't make it less artistic. If your vision of good art is photorealistic paintings, maybe you should open your mind about it. Have you actually been to some contemporary art exhibitions? I'm not saying you have to like everything but there's some amazing work being done by passionate people. Generalisation like "modern art is pathetic" doesn't seem to indicated a real understanding of art and intentions.
Like the guy who pooped on a tile and had it made into production and then tiled a room with it? Or who made a machine that eats and generates human like feces? Or the dirt room exhibit which is just a room in a building full of dirt?
I get they are trying to express themselves but that doesn’t make it inherently profound.
I get to go to some contemporary art museums for work. Just another example, the creepy sounds, videos, and installations are just horror show stuff. Like I think the people who made it need mental help and I queue in a line to see it which makes me feel worst. I want to be inspired by art to do better not feel like crap afterwards or feel scammed. Never understood intention in art. I don't want a backstory. It should speak for itself.
Replication is relatively easy. Origination of a new art style is not. It’s the same reason why anyone could make a Jackson Pollock painting but it won’t be a jackson pollock.
