Conceptual art is … Conceptual art is about the concept more than the finished product. Who knows how long someone deliberated about making a piece before physically making it.
I’m not condoning it but you have to understand the reason for art like this. Personally some is pure pretentious rubbish, but some can be pleasing or even humouous to look at (Duchamp, G.W. Leibniz or even Yoko Ono).
If you took the … If you took the time to watch the hole episoade you’de see the theme music is by fridge – uless of course you mean the punky rock thing – don’t know what that is…
Nope, not that we … Nope, not that we get to judge it.
However they are judged by their story.
In art the equivlent of the ’story’ is the creation the artist is left with.
But again… it is down to personal opinion.
Personally I love graffiti art. Some would say that isnt art……
I like things that artists spend a lot of time on. I also really like picture that look life like, or realistic. They dont have to be REAL objects though.
the problem i have, … the problem i have, as an artist who grew up admiring greats like picasso and pollock, is that art no longer seems like a noble endeavor. interesting, but lets face it – vulgar, small minded and irritating to the eye. transcendence denied.
Sorry that comment … Sorry that comment was a little over the top.
However I stand by my decision. Its really personal opinion, there is no right or wrong.
I think personally I just prefer artists that can draw life like amazing pictures. Ive just never been a fan of abstract/modern art.
I prefer actual pictures …. if that makes sense? lol
So the price of an … So the price of an art work says something about its value? You’ve bought into the very school of thought that debases art, and with that you really have no grounds to criticise – of course it’d ‘look’ like if you didn’t even bother asking why. That’s a clue there for you; decide for yourself, but also remember to inform yourself first.
all Art has its … all Art has its merits! but old Gothic art is a wee bit stiff and suprisingly crude considering theyre Pagan granddaddys made such immaculate wood, gold and silver Art! ……..In Celtic world however, these traditional art styles remained and were combined with Christian art to create really slick stuff!! far from Gothic stiffness.
Matthew Colling’s … Matthew Colling’s series is cool. He really knows how to make us understand a lot about art and relate the message to our modern times.
I can’t believe … I can’t believe this series has not been released to DVD. I have searched everywhere because it’s the one series about art thats actually interesting and funny. If anyone knows how to get this series please let me know.

I just dont see how sawing a pig in half can be called art.
If they had have made a pig sculpture out of things then I could understand.
