    Time to end everybody gets a trophy. One of the best learning lessons of my life was on a camping trip when I was younger. My Uncle brought a family friend's kid along with us and his artistic skills were far superior to my abilities at the time, and this hurt my feelings because it caught my Uncle's attention, whom I greatly looked up to. My Uncle sat me down and told me that even though I may be able to surpass others skills with hard work and determination, there will always be those in life that no matter what, will be better at something than me. Take pride in what you're good at, but be humbled knowing that there are always others that may be better than you are at something in life.

I highly doubt that the original commenter is even trying to defend the fact that it's crap.

    @stephanie stockbridge YES! Fun fact: Recently declassified documents reveal that modern art (and those goofy artists) were part of the C IA's psychological operation to convert our thinking about art and just about everything else. Everybody IS free to express themselves, but only true artists are skilled to create true art. It's the Left (meaning; anti-Americans wanting communism via socialism first) tearing away at everything in American life; standards, laws, rules, order, etc. The same folks who hate the tradition of family and patriarchy, painting it as inherently evil and therefore must be stopped. It really is rage against our independent and uniquely-created souls. These punks would not be alive with a microphone if it weren't for the civil structure and order of traditionally organized society. (But you probably know this!!)

    nipnop - I am no connoisseur, but I do wander the halls of some of the largest public galleries, and many of the smallest private galleries. Some few works are great, the vast majority of works are ... somewhat less than that. Moving an idea from the subjective or emotional realm into a physical representation is no small thing, and to do it well is a rare gift that few possess. Drawing some geometric shapes onto a white canvas is something any grade schooler can do. Throwing paint (or the brush) at a surface can be done by a monkey, and the result is just as relevant. Any child can scrawl something, and it often “looks better” than what I see on gallery walls. The great artists speak to more than themselves, regardless of classification or the opinion of a critic.

    To clarify, I have made more than “ten bucks for a decent, quality piece,” but some pieces, people just aren’t as interested in. If you’ve ever been an artist, I’m sure you’d know the feeling of putting hours of work into a piece with few people noticing it, but when you put out another piece that didn’t take you as long, you get loads of positive feedback and people saying “WOW THAT IS SO GOOD” It happens to every artist at least once.

    Because it's not art to begin with- is the short answer. Not everyone is an artist. Even Picaso earned his initial reputation as a great artist by being able to actually draw and paint anything he wanted. He later switched to cubism, not out of laziness or incompetence, but because he saught new challenges and further evolution. So yeah, period blood painting is not art.

    I'm a classically trained realist artist, if you guys only knew how hard it was to learn the skills of the masters because of these people... It may or may not surprise you to know that Realist/Classical Ateliers and Academies are not eligible for accreditation and therefore promising students cannot receive loans or grants yet at a modern art school you can get a free ride for edgy "period-blood" paintings you did your senior year of high school. Modernists of the early 20th century almost wiped the traditions of painting and sculpture from the face of the planet in an effort to "not repeat the mistakes of the past that led to WWI." Look up the Armory show of 1913 where it all started. The economics of modern art also CRIPPLED the traditional artists of the time. Why spend a month on a painting when Picasso can crank out 10 canvases in a day? As a gallery, why only sell 10 paintings per month when you can sell 100's??? I plan on writing a book on my experiences as an art student navigating our broken world in an effort to piece together the puzzle left to us by the great masters of the Victorian era and prior. Many of the Ateliers and Academies of today only exist because of a few direct lines of lineage as well as painting manuals/texts.

This wasn't true of the periods before (i.e. baroque renaissance, romantic etc.) And for God's sake you dont think Picasso had standards and honed his craft? Part of the reason that art (in general; architecture, music, etc.) keeps becoming simpler and in some cases degenerate, is because people have completly divorced it from craft. This mostly happened after the World Wars, however some seeds were planted in the romantic periods. So I invite you to read a book, or several, and educate yourself.

    Who said any art or any THING has to be beautiful to appreciate it? I too used to poo-poo "modern' art, abstraction, etc, when I was 12 and knew nothing about it. It wasn't aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and so I didn't like the way it looked. Then, after just a cursory education of that work (not to mention the many years of learning about it later), I saw it in a different light. It's not meant to "look pretty", so why judge it only in the arena of things like flowers and attractive people and decorations? Also, pretty art, being that it's just that and nothing deeper, is BORING. Just like pretty people, if they've nothing else going for them, have no interests, aren't smart, can't hold a conversation, etc, are also boring. Books with nice covers that contain uninteresting subject matter, are garbage. Come on.

You're implying there was some sort of.. memo-from-on-high that dictated all art to be "dumbed down", that all "modern" artists unquestionably followed this directive, and that it was all, across the board, including in the music industry, done in the name of ruining "exceptionalism" - whatever tf that is/means..? 1) the art you speak of, overall and individually speaking - took far more thought, attention to detail, cerebral content, and artistic/intellectual know-how than any "Master's" piece depicting various bible sequences or one-liners - and certainly more than the countless pieces commissioned by the church in order to one-up other artists' work of the same names 2) the path to abstraction was a long, arduous, and all-together fascinating journey through time and tradition, and yet it's simple enough for the vast majority of college students to grasp after whichever low-level Art History class they took to learn it (its reiterated many times during many different classes because it all overlaps, and revisits this very rudimentary of concepts/timelines) 3) an interesting thing about abstraction is that the hyper disciplined, hyper-respectful Japanese calligraphy artists eventually broke their own craft down until arriving at the same type of abstraction y'all hate for no good reason. If y'all had actually looked in to any of this I think you would have typed out such crap

    There two challenges that in modern art. 1st, artists have become political social warriors - because it’s an easy subject. No longer are they the visual poet unfolding the human condition and the depth of nature. And 2nd, they forgo learning the craft of art skipping the hard work and leapfrogging straight to abstract art. No longer is abstract or interpretive art an extension of talent - it has become a substitute for talent. Actually, after rereading my own comment- there is only one reason. They’re lazy.

    Jonathan Wood: Abstract art is known as any art form that is not an accurate representation of a form or object. What this means is that you will not see a definite shape or figure in the art, you will have to look at it closely and interpret what you see. The art itself is differed in many ways including color and form. The artist sees something in the painting and artwork and often the viewer may see something not intend by the artist.

    There are standards to art. If I work for years honing my craft, practicing constantly and screwing up my wrist to create something, and someone can yeet some paint at a canvas and call it art, I'd be pissed if some random non-artist or stranger told me "there are no standards for art, it's about expression". I am pissed that some random stranger told you that. If there's no standard for art, then why are there art schools? It's like saying there's no standard for any sort of artistic craft, so long as it's about feelings. That anything can be garbage so long as it's what you feel inside (not to be confused with painting garbage on purpose because you feel like garbage). It's like saying doctors can get away with shady and subpar medical practice because they feel that they shouldn't be held to standard or expected to produce goods or services of high quality. Sorry for long comment, but i didn't dedicate my life to getting told "artist isn't a good career idea" and spending my time proving people who said that wrong, just for someone to say it's for nothing.

    I'm personally a fan of abstract art. I have saved in my channel the best abstract/impressionist art I could find on KZread. I like how observers have to find meaning in the artwork, and how the observer plays a role in creating the art. In the more objective and realistic art styles, it feels like the artist became a photocopy machine. I don't mean to denigrate those artists who are skilled in realism, the best part is my opinion ultimately doesn't matter, art is supposed to be subjective. I feel conservatives should get into abstract art because it's an exercise in creativity and imagination. lack of creativity and imagination is responsible for our cultural failures.

    I went to a modern art museum a few years ago. (I won't say which city) One exhibit was a basket full of rocks. One was a room that was pitch black that you stood in for a few minutes until you were disoriented. One picture was just a round yellow dot. And one exhibit was a reflection of the ceiling of the museum in a barrel of oil. I'd like to have those 2 hours back.

    We don't create modern art anymore. We create contemporary art. Modern art era ended in the late 1960s/70s. Since then, all current art forms are under the contemporary movement. You can find great art in any era. This was more of an abstract art style, which is an acquired taste, but not the only type of art that exists nowadays. Lots of realism exists in modern and contemporary art. I like Prager U, but the crowd here is mostly not an art crowd.

    + *Mike Walters* The invention of the camera is a major reason this sort of art exists in the first place. Realism lost a lot of merit once it became possible to photograph a realistic portrait in seconds. That's why there was a movement away from realism and towards abstraction, which had more scope for creativity and less competition.

There were oohs and aahs and pictures taken and attempts to explain the profundity. Idiots. I'd like to think that eventually someone came along and while the amazed crowd watched, said something like ah there they are, picked them up, put them on, and calmly walked away.

    My late father used to judge art shows. He displayed as an artist, and trained me to set up displays based on the same rules for creating a decent painting. There is a legitimacy to some modern art which demonstrates technical control and mastery of shading, contrast, the way the eye is directed through or captured by the compositional elements, etc. However, the test between whether or not it is simply crap starts with the question: Is this something with which people will truly want to live? And it ends with: Does this contribute a quality of meaning in the lives of those who will live with it? Too much of what is today called art simply is not.
