Seriously though
How often do you see stuff like this in cafe's and the like? Print it big and put it in a frame dude.

Sounds like a good idea
she can sell it all and keep her mum & I in the lifestyle we've become accustomed to in our dotage.
But when she wants to chop up the family dog and put it in formaldehyde or piss on a crucifix and enclose it in perspex I'm pulling the pin!
Same for setting up her messy bedroom in the Tate as an "installation".

I once shat in a shoe box and exhibited it in the Tate.
I'm not an artist,
I was just reaaallly proud of it.

Oh but really,Tracey Emin was quoted as saying
"When people see my bed they think 'This looks like my bed.' when really it isn't their bed, it is mine!"
Now that makes it all the more clearer why she's a prize-winning artist! ;)

You know, I think I have a lot of patience with modern artists
and I usually think that an installation that makes people think or breaks regular thought patterns is more art than, say, a painting of a vase with flowers.
With the occasional exception, of course.
That being said, she's obviously wrong.

I agree I like art to be a bit more challenging than a nice looking picture, David Hockney does a nice line in Cubist Photography where he did a montage of photos of a chair that seem to make the chair look weird and splayed out but as he explained - it wasn't just a static picture of a chair but his interpretation of the chair from the view of someone walking past it therefore what he was representing was the chair viewed over time - which I rather liked that concept.
