It’s easy. The same principal that rules the progressive “elites” in politics, rules the “elites” of the “art” world. It’s all about the pretentions of the “in crowd”.
It’s art because they say it is, and if you don’t see it, then you aren’t one of them, and you aren’t an elite.
Some rich but basically foolish elite will purchase this for an absurd price and his “friends” will ohh and ahh over his waste of money and he will feel very smug and important. Then he will go to a party and hold forth about how the Republicans aren’t caring for the poor.
If only I could harness that much stupidity.
5-7 million dollars for THAT!!!???that certainly verifies that some people have more cents than sense…lol
