So the question comes up again; what the hell IS art? Is it only the end result that matters or does the process hold any weight in terms of the quality of the final piece?
This is hardly something new. I recall, a few years back a creative gentleman was featured in Art Forum, who blew paint out of his ass, which I interpreted as his take on the absurdity of not only the art world, but the notion that abstract work could be judged as either good or bad in the first place.
By my standards, her abstract works aren’t very good. My cat could do this blindfolded, and certainly Koko, the gorilla, could follow suit. I’ll start paying closer attention to her work, when she gains some control over those things. Now, THAT would be spectacular.
Art is a great excuse for elevating our banal needs to a higher plane. This is a good way to get her the attention she wants, not as an artist, but for the sheer magnitude of those appendages. Breasts speak very loudly in our culture. What better way to get everyone to buck up and stand at attention?
