Australian feminist comedian Hannah Gadsby has been roasted by art critics after launching her 'It's Pablo-matic: Picasso According to Hannah Gadsby' exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum in New York City.

The art show features more than 100 works, including pieces by Picasso and by modern female artists, as well as audio descriptions by Gadsby herself.

An official press release says the exhibition 'reckons with complex questions around misogyny, creativity, the art-historical canon, and "genius"'.

Looks like the trial balloon of cancelling Picasso has burst.

(F)eminist comedian, that is ontologically impossible.

Nothing screams "comedian" like a censorious scold.

They used to attempt to elicit laughter. Intentionally anyway.

Feminist comedian is an oxymoron. Heck, ever since Joan Rivers died “female comedian” has become an oxymoron 😖

Picaso? The artist who backed the socialists in the Spanish civil war? The ‘artist’ who drew unrecognizable ’art’.

Pass the popcorn.

The leftists always form circular firing squads.

They just can’t help themselves.

He actually was a good artist, (his works followed good art principles like color mastery, composition, light, dark, contrasts etc) and in his pre wierd period he created some pretty nice conventional art

The truth is Picass WAS a POS when it came to his women. Those relationships also fueled his art.

The same can be said for the Founders. All of them are great men, and a number owned slaves.

Everyone is a sinner. “Separate the sin from the sinner” and “separate the art from the artist” are common phrases.

But there IS a line. Many people dumped the Dixie Chicks, and I’ll never go see Roger Waters.

I’m not an art guy, but I could see Pablo’s communism and treating women like dirt forming that Line.

“Heck, ever since Joan Rivers died was murdered for outing Barry as gay, and Big Mike as a tranny “female comedian” has become an oxymoron.

There. That makes a little more sense.

It would not be a big loss. Much better artwork could be found on the wall of just about any kindergarten classroom.

Communist or not, “Guernica” is a very powerful piece.
