Artist Makes Portraits On Glass With Just A Hammer

Simon Berger is an artist who works with a hammer and glass. He has figured out a way to crack the glass so precisely that it creates an image of a face. It’s a delicate process that has taken him three years of trial and error to get right. Sometimes it takes him one try, but other times it can take him five. And an expensive series of mishaps could cost hundreds of Swiss francs. One wrong hit, and he’ll have to start all over again.

[@anonymoussurfer8319]

In defence of the $20 million white canvas: _art is subjective. The white painting is quite abstract in that it evokes a myriad of emotions, each unique to every individual. In your case, it's hate and disgust! And it's just as valid an emotion and perspective as that of those who find it attractive and meaningful! As for why your white canvas can't sell for as much as the ones that have already been sold at such exhorbitant prices, the answer is quite simple!_ *You Shoulda done it sooner* For those who think I'm speaking in favor of the birdshit art, I'm not. HAH! Look at that! Another valid perspective. Art made of shit from birds. No, even THAT would probably have more merit and objective worth than just white paint smeared "evenly" across the canvas! Is what I would say had I really been a hater. Fortunately, I'm not a sore loser like YOU, reader! *_Or am I..?_*

Not in Music or Writing Arts so you should say "most" not "all" art forms

Real definition of the word art: The ability to manipulate something that we see as ordinary into something that appears extraordinary.

Just when you thought beauty and ingenuity in art is dead, then this amazing thing gets recommended by KZbin !

Rich people should buy his art for tax evasions rather than some mess of a canvas they call art

[@EPICSOUNDTRAX]

Like Rothko painting squares lol cannot stand that guy and all the hype .

[@DannySullivanMusic]

Haha too accurate

[@gigabossbitch]

@@EPICSOUNDTRAX i don't see why this is more art than for example rothko?

[@EPICSOUNDTRAX]

@@gigabossbitch this one is incredibly complicated the other is a complete fraud.

[@gigabossbitch]

@@EPICSOUNDTRAX i really like this! But i the reason i also like rothko is the fact that you pay so much and get so little and that is part of the art...

Am equally amazed by his art & hands with ZERO bandages. 🤤

A guy accidentally spills paint on a canvas= Museum An artwork that actually took effort and can be called a masterpiece= Department store

[@chazzcharles1327]

More people will see it at the store.

[@krutika6769]

your pfp, of ken and trump 💀

[@kennythemeat]

the store windows of this departement store are pretty famous. as a kid i allways wanted to take a look when i was going to bern with my parents or grand parents. they had allways pretty cool stuff in there. moving parts and everything. in spring for example there are sometimes real rabbits in there. jumping around. the store window of loeb is around ten times more interesting than any museum of art....so its not that bad!!!

[@timewaster0123]

Those accidental spills are not accidental they are not random.They are specific shapes, shades, etc which may take years to complete. Everybody has his/her unique art style so calling someone's art piece accidental is disrespecting the spirit of painting itself.Just my opinion.If anybody finds this offensive, sorry.Dont even bother to reply to this comment.I won't read it😅
