I wonder if Geller is faking it. He sures luvs to thrown out the "ist", and "isms". He whole is shtick is rather boring as a lot of others before, assuming he is being serious, him have said the same crap for 150+ years about fighting "cultural hegemony". Sort of ironic the Impressionists were part of that Modernist movement now they are charged as being part of the Establishment.

For leftism to succeed, greatness has to be obliterated. He's just parroting his professors, and since he's an idiot, his professor's garbage is attractive to him.

They’re fat-shaming the models.

I’m not always a fan of Renoir’s later portraits but he’s still a very great painter. I’m not sure I know who Geller is. Is he suggesting we burn what he doesn’t like?

I bet he thinks that painting of a Campbell’s Soup can is the epitome of great art.

Same people probably consider Jackson Pollock as Art.

There was a counter-demonstration against the anti-Renoiristas, where one participant said, “You will take my Renoir when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.”

Somehow, I think there is some tongue-in-cheek going on here.

his misogynistic portraits of women

Renoir, misogynistic? Hardly.

He can’t do anything extraordinary like Renoir.
