...modern art is such a cop out and a disgrace. the philosophical underpinings that frame this edifice are so weak and banal... yawn!!!..tired old refrain..it has become the "academy" that it allegedly sunderd long ago. thank the gods for historical revisionism.

ok, go on

If there wasn't modern art you wouldn't, with time, have any art!

I do not believe that one should put a label on the creative process. I understand that we all have our limits to what we will consider to be "art." I liken this to music--not everyone sees rock and roll as music, nor does everyone think tribal music is real. It is all a matter of opinion. This is what makes the entire creative process fun and interesting. It is all about diversity.
