Sorry for you all...
This matter about BAD ART, GOOD ART... What is it???
There is no Art, there are only artists. Ernst Gombrich told more than 40
years ago and you«re still arguing. Hmmm...
There is art not Art. What is showing through this SENSATION exhibition at
the Brooklin Museum of Art is just the sacrife of deepness and the triumph
of effectism.
This is a matter of self respect about the public, about an institution and
about goverment. Did you like SENSATION? It«s up to you.
But when I get bored watching TV I just turn it off.
A little more... I won«t sit my children in front of a TV screen to watch
PlayBoy TV just because that«s culture wideness and because that is Art too.
Forget it people all over this world... you are waisting your time in this.
SENSATION is not the problem, the problem is this stuff in your minds.
