I used to work with a girl who had done a degree in ... art ... studies ... thing ...
We discussed 'modern art' (best of all the mind-numbingly pointless conversations) and I suggested that if I sprayed 'Saatchi is a cunt' on a bedsheet and entered it to the Turner Prize it should win teh compo, and she nodded and told me that now I was understanding it.

People have been complaining about modern art for at least 2000 years.

I think it was one of the Plinys? Socrates? that commented that the youth today are more interested in the pursuit of leisure, the playing of music, and in self indulgence rather than trying to better themselves or of marking their position in society and aspiring to greatness.
