If that’s what I had to show for 57 years on the planet, I might suck on the tail pipe too.

Those look like somebody put The California Raisins through a blender.

Looks like the crap I have to pretend to like that my grand-daughter brings home from pre-school.

It reminds me of the plush disease microbes from ThinkGeek.com. One of my daughters got “Common Cold” and “Bubonic Plague” with some of her Christmas money.

After looking at this guys crap I’m beginning to believe that tattoos truly are art.

"Kelley's notable works included a...tiny rendition of Superman's extraterrestrial birthplace encased in a glass jug..." I did one of those when I was a kid...

Artists like that don't come around very often.Not in my neighborhood they don't!

The black-and-white thingie is like if the Wicked Witch of the East were crushed by a falling cow, instead of a house, in the first color sequence of “The Wizard of Oz.”
I’d hesitate to call this stuff “art,” but there’s a bit of silly humor to it, at least.

I love America, where a dude can sell a few pinatas for millions.

Maybe his suicide was performance art?

He certainly didn’t bring much beauty into the world.
