# I don't so much have anything against
modern art, though it doesn't appeal to me.

But I can't get over the pretentiousness of the people who talk such utter bollocks about it, and the stuck up fools who pay a small fortune to own it.

# I think you are right.
I think an artist who is a pretentious or downright nasty person can still make good art.
And Art collectors are indeed humungous tossers.

# yup
i have a friend whose father is an artist, and he says that the shit that reviewers generate is totally not what the art is about. it's quite reassuring to think that actual artists think that it's bullshit, too.

oh, and half of the descriptions of pieces in art galleries are made up on the spot by curators. true.
