Have you seen a few in person? Not saying it will change your mind, but pictures in survey texts don't really give you much to go on.

yeah, i've seen the ones at the MoMA and the Met in NYC. I don't know. A lot of people think it's genius, and I guess I just don't see what it is about paint splatters on a canvas that seems to catch people.

Then again I used to hate Picasso and really dislike Matisse, so who knows. I think I just come around really slowly when it comes to art. Or something.

Word. I'm not too crazy about the work either, though I think they can be neat to look at, especially compared to some of the other stuff that fills modern galleries (at least compositional failures from distant centuries are buoyed by interesting historical subject matter). I don't consider it "not getting it," just "not liking it." Just like music or literature, you can't be expected to enjoy everything just because it made it into the canon. They just put this huge Miro sculpture at one of the entrances to my library that makes me want to puke every time I pass by.

agreed. i have a friend who is an art-con major, and she gets really uppity about this stuff. We went to one of the museums together and she seemed genuinely offended when I suggested that I didn't really consider a certain piece "art" at all. and i'm hardly a know-it-all d-bag when it comes to art. But that thing was just a big black rectangle with 4 smaller rectangles in it.

the one guy i feel really conflicted about is rothko. his stuff seems so simple, almost bordering on dumb, but it's kinda fascinating, too.



anyway, i'm done now. sleepy time.

Things haven't gone to plan yet, but reasons for optimism abound. Even if this doesn't work out, the long-term future looks bright.

Used to have that print framed. Loved it. It is slightly threatening, tho.

No, not at all. That statement was about a certain aspect of my life.
