[@BlueSorcerer]

Totally didnt give any context. It was a danish artist who wanted to protest how badly artists were payed by museums (because the pay is SHIT). He was commisioned by a danish museum to make a piece for them. He asked them for 84k in cash as a part of the piece. The museum thought they were getting a physical piece, instead they Got a brilliant conceptual piece. The artist had taken the money that was supposed to be Used for the piece, and simply ran off. What was left was a blank canvas. People who shit on modern art refuse to find context for anything. Instead, yall are just stuck up on old facist beliefs about beuty and what art Can be.

as someone who also went to art school (wish I didn't, but I was dumb and 17 when I decided to go), once we had a student exhibit where a student covered a chair completely in kraft cheese whiz. Not a single inch of that chair was uncovered, and it stunk up the room completely, but my professor kept going on about how "revolutionary" it was or whatever. Same exhibit, another student recorded a conversation between her and her neglectful mother, and played it over gameplay footage of two Sims talking. It was incredibly uncomfortable to sit thru, and professor kept insisting it was "her animation" even though it was CLEARLY Sims footage. I'm glad I transferred out for the following semester

Not always, I’d argue performance artists kinda lean more into this, but a lot of artists I’ve known have a ton of learned skills in things like ceramics and painting that take years to actually get good at, and a lot of them are pretty chill and normal people. The stuff you’re talking about tends to become more of an issue with highly successful artists (financially speaking) who buy into their own hype.

What is wild about the Robot arm isn't so much that it's trying to clean up the pool. But I remember it on a reddit post: "No piece of art has ever emotionally affected me the way this robot arm piece has. It's programmed to try to contain the hydraulic fluid that’s constantly leaking out and required to keep itself running...if too much escapes, it will die so it's desperately trying to pull it back to continue to fight for another day. Saddest part is they gave the robot the ability to do these 'happy dances' to spectators. When the project was first launched it danced around spending most of its time interacting with the crowd since it could quickly pull back the small spillage. Many years later... (as you see it now in the video) it looks tired and hopeless as there isn't enough time to dance anymore.. It now only has enough time to try to keep itself alive as the amount of leaked hydraulic fluid became unmanageable as the spill grew over time. Living its last days in a never-ending cycle between sustaining life and simultaneously bleeding out... (Figuratively and literally as its hydraulic fluid was purposefully made to look like it's actual blood). "The robot arm finally ran out of hydraulic fluid in 2019, slowly came to a halt and died "

If it's that guy from the prager u videos IIRC he lied and said it was a Pollock painting. I dunno if it's a meaningful exercise, because if an art *professor* tells me a painting is by someone, and I'm not familiar with an artist's library of works in part or at all (even if I'm an art student that doesn't mean I know who did what all of the time), I'd be inclined to believe them and go along with the exercise.

He told his students to complete a specific assignment, not to have a genuine opinion or to see 'real' meaning (something which Pollock never assigned any of his paintings, funny enough), they did it, you know, *for a grade,* then he screeched "YOU FOOLS, 'tis not a Pollock but my SMOCK!" and then Pollocked all over the place.

i like how you at the start of this being "ha, let's look at so dumb contemporary and have some laugh." and then being interesting in some of the works, the conclusion is great too, i feel like a lot of people focus too much on the sold prices of of those pieces, but the value is beyond the numbers on the check. For me i kinda like Emmanuel's work cuz it reminds me of the curves are arches of the movements in animations, and it's interesting to see a human actually visualize those curves in his movement.

As someone who's actually going to school for art, it's a real slap in the face when people with no real skill make thousands off of their "art." I've been practicing my craft for seven years, but these people will quickly upstage real artists.

With the buckets of sand that topple under their own weight, that sounds like a great metaphor that you write into a book about geopolitical turmoil or that a character recites in a revolutionary fantasy novel, not an entire standalone art piece.

[@T.O.A.D.U.K]

I think part of what makes art art is that there are people who do things that others can't. For example whether you like Meat Canyon or not you can't deny that his ideas are different AND there is effort by at least one person. The type of art in this video involves spending more time and effort convincing you it is something than was actually spent on the art itself.

[@PhoenixRiseinFlame]

I’m a big Beksinski fan. He’s created some of the most harrowing and dark works of art I’ve seen. His experience under Nazi and Soviet control in his home country of Poland really adds layers to the art. His use of Prussian blue in some of his art is made from the same chemicals used in the gas chambers in concentration camps. Other artists I’d recommend are: Otto Dix, John Martin, Vladimir Kush, Heironymous Bosch, MC Escher, Gustav Dore, and Bruegel

[@morningowl43]

I think DuChamp’s “Le Fountain” was remarkable in the fact that it was done in 1917 not 1940, doing something like this was beyond unheard of at the time and he still followed the artistic guidelines of the gallery space which was “whatever you bring us no matter how good or bad it is we will hang it up and display it” and DuChamp went bet and scribbled his name on a urinal. It’s art in the way that defiance itself is art, it’s a statement that even the things you see every day can be art even if you piss in it. It also says that what i see in art is not exactly what you would see but its art regardless. Like for 1917 that was mind blowing. It was meme art before meme art. You gotta respect that.

[@swarthygiant1463]

He also never said it was “good” art, just that it was in fact art. Easy to take that for granted now but at the time even impressionist art and the like was considered “not real art” because it wasn’t a picture of a fucking apple or something. Art was also considered to be for the bourgeois not the common people, so to take something as lowly and common and purely utilitarian as a urinal, and call that art, was also a statement about who art was for

[@Arum638]

The only requirement was that he pay the fee, and they didn't display the piece during the show.

28:07 the “art” is the machine arm is leaking hydraulic fluid that makes the arm move, is the equivalent of a human being hooked up to a machine that drains the blood and pours it onto the floor and the person has to scoop it up into an area that will collect the blood and pump into into the person or they will die from the blood loss.
