And I cannot stress this enough: bury their bones in an unmarked ditch.
Those are original Warhol boxes. Two Brillos, a Motts and a Campbells tomato soup. Multiple millions worth of original art, set on the floor by the front door.
Theres a regular customer whom i do plumbing work for, for the last 3 or 4 years. These belong to her. She also has Cherub Riding a Stag, and a couple other Warhols that i cannot identify, along with other originals by other artists that i also cannot identify. I have to go back to her house this coming Monday, i might get photos of the rest of her art, just so i can figure out what it is.
Even though i dont have an artistic bone in my entire body, i can appreciate art. I have negative feelings on private art like this that im too dumb to elucidate on.
eat the fucking rich. they are good for nothing.
Again your arguing against these boxes of corporate logos being art.
What is the understanding that I'm missing that makes these carbon copies of boxes of cleaning supplies different from when my daughter traces a cartoon character.
Also with the whole scientific thing you're arguing that the problem is that people give better known researchers more legitimacy which is the exact problem I was sprinting out with the art. It shouldn't be "more artistic" because of who painted it just like those papers aren't more accurate because of who published them.
You're highlighting the exact thing I said made it bullshit.
Idk dude, read my earlier comment about it or like the wikipedia page on pop art or something. When you say "So if I drop a piece of paper on the floor, point at it and say 'that's art' I'm a highly talented artist," you are doing some ridiculous nihilist thing where you attempt to say that context could make anything into art, and therefore we shouldn't take context into account. You're arguing against understanding art in general.
You are badly misreading what I wrote, so this will be my last reply. I never said it matters who painted it. It matters when it was painted, what it was referencing, what the world was like at the time: what does the work mean? If you drop a piece of paper on the floor, there's no famous Doodle On The Floor to reference, it's just a meaningless piece of paper. When Warhol made those crates, the point was for people to stop and wonder that fine art in a gallery (for instance, a limited run of some woodblock prints) can share almost exactly the same intent and production method as ubiquitous, unpraised commodity art (for instance, postcards in a gift shop). If your daughter was killed in Gaza maybe we'd put her last sketches in a museum. If she showed up in ancient Egypt when nobody knew how to do perspective they'd be a big deal.
No investigation, no right to speak. You will need to learn a little about art if you want to say anything meaningful about it on either level. You can't persuasively argue that a particular pop art piece is "not art" without knowing a little bit about pop art. You can't effectively argue that "art" is contextless and inherent without knowing how these arguments have been already developed and rebutted by different schools of art. This is genuinely intro level stuff.
