BRAVO!

This is what is behind every piece of modern "art" involving excrement, rotting meat, and mindless smears of paint.

The point of "art" is no longer to inspire or induce the viewer to reflect on life, but to rub the viewer's face in the hatred today's "artists" feel toward anything good or decent.

Thanks.

The problem with art isn't so much communism, or the remnants of the French Revolution, but the shift from the Apollonian to the Dionysian. For a grand dissection of the phenomenon, read E. Michael Jones' "Dionysus Rising." Most artists make anarchic junk because they really have no intellectual grounding in the concept of logical thinking. Because of the diffusion of artistic knowledge, there has never been a larger number of superb artists in the West. Because of the lack of classical education, there has never been a larger number of tenth rate artists either.
