How ironic. White people make and spend money on foolish artwork while black Africans starve.

There are some wonderful African artists who also have art exhibitions....wonder if she ever attends those?

LA MOMA had a huge bash celebrating African artists a couple years ago. The artists used whatever was available to them in their villages.....elephant dung....mud...plants.... and came up with some beautiful sculptures, paintings and woven articles. To me....THIS is art....making something beautiful from nothing.....and utlimately capturing the imagination of all those who come into contact with it.....
