Committees that select “art” for public display are the biggest bunch of gullible idiots on earth. They invariably pick the ugliest, most hideous crap they can find.

Picking the most hideous “art” they can find is tantamount
to appearing “educated”, “erudite” and “sophisticated” in
the artsy-fartsy circles in which they travel.

The more hideous it is, the more expensive it is. One of
FANG’S relatives is a well-known “artist” in some circles.
This person HAS done some fairly good stuff; but is also
worthless in most practical areas. Taught art for a long
time until he got to the place where he would just fall
asleep in his classes and his bosses finally had to just
insist he retire. He is well into his mid-nineties. (He
always sort of lorded it over the rest of us “less talented”
family members; but was always there with bells on when
we cooked. I think I had maybe a bowl of soup at his house
once.) FANG finally cut off that relationship after the
same sort of backstabbing kept happening over the years.
He persisted in accusing FANG of “stealing” and caused him
a load of angst. I wouldn’t have tolerated it as long as
FANG did myself. It was stupid and not logical as FANG
worked and made PLENTY of money to buy what he wanted.
He kept trying with that dynamic as long as his dad lived
as his dad’s sibling was married to the “artist”.
