Artists being TWUNTS.
You see me and you and anyboby who is not a professional artist could do that and it would be like "Oh philistine, but they don't understand or matter so it's fine..
But poncy new modern artists do it JUST TO PISS OFF OTHER PONCES. And to get a reaction, which they do, which sells their crap. Great.
It is of couse due to 95% of all art being utter bollocks and lots of people having to justify themselves as if they don't they are the first up against the wall to be shot.

I'm not a mad 'modern art is shit' type person. There is loads of stuff I love. I dug Hirst's dot stuff for exactly the same reason I dislike the work I saw in that documentary. It made me think. Hirst's work made me think "Cheeky bastard". Pollock's made me think "drunk man on ladder"

of hirst's stuff is any good - same for pollock unfortunatelt.
Hirst pisses me off because he only comes up with a concept and then gets someone else to make it (who are then uncreditied).
He's just a cynical business man and a rippoff cnut. Hate him for that reason - he is ruining art for those who actually do anything resonable.
