Modern Art. I suffer for my Art.
What is Modern Art? Modern Art refers to artistic works produced during the period from the 1860s to the 1970s, and denotes the style and philosophy of the art; ways of seeing and incorporating new ideas about the nature of materials and its functions. Sounds pretty complicated with a hint of bullsh*t, but it basically boils down to this:
Modern Art is not only meaningless, it also robs you of $15 to view and question it. When I'm standing in front of some ink blotted Rorschach piece of abstract art, trying to decipher the underlying meaning of what looks like something anyone could come up with in a dark room. I feel like I'm being laughed at by someone whose sole purpose for creating the oil and canvas question mark was to see if they could make a fool out of you; and guess what? They fooled me.
Modern Art is generally absolute trash. It's terrible. Go see it on exhibit for yourself at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Guaranteed not to get you laid that night if you drag you're girlfriend or wife along.
What a starving Modern Artist must feel:
I am an artist. I am better than everyone because I am an artist. If people criticize me its because they don't understand me. If they don't understand me it's because I'm smarter than them. Because I'm smarter than them I am better than them. Because I am better than them I am an artist...
Hey, I could scribble that!
