They have little to do. It’s not art, it’s too ugly, It makes makes no statement beyond useless recycling. Garbage.

That is in your opinion. I don’t like Da Vinci, Manet, Monet, most Degas, a lot of Lautrec and many others. It is not what I foresee as beautiful. I find it ugly. Your opinion counts for you an no other. It is art, but it may not be appealing. You should probably learn a little about what art is before dismantling the knowledge of seasoned art critics. I’m sure you think Duchamp’s ‘Fountain’ is not art either and if you do then you really need to reconsidering posting comments about art.

Perhaps “ugly” art is the saviour of us all from other inspiration? Advertising perhaps?
“As little as one could imagine about sixty years ago a political collapse of the greatness now arrived at, just as little was a cultural breakdown thinkable as it began to show itself in futuristic and cubistic representations since 1900. Sixty years ago an exhibition of so-called dadaistic ‘experiences’ would have seemed simply impossible. and the sponsors would have been sent to the madhouse, while today they even preside in ‘artists’ unions.” This plague could not have appeared at the time, because neither would public opinion have suffered it nor would the State have looked on quietly. For it is an affair of the State- that means of the government - to prevent a people from being driven into the arms of spiritual lunacy. For in lunacy such a development would end one day. For on the day that this kind of art were actually to correspond to the general conception, one of the most severe changes of mankind would have begun; the backward development of the human brain would have begun with this, but one would hardly be able to conceive the end.”Mein Kampf, page 353-354

I think you guys are being small-minded curmudgeons who feel like bursting a really cool bubble for the simple sake of wanting to be outspoken and an individual. I personally found it quite interesting.

Look at yourselves in the mirror. No one is going to give a shit what you post here. Art is in the eye of the beholder. End of discussion.

I wonder if you went through the “giant keyboard” what and how many hidden words are tossed in there. I bet the “artist/engineer” had a hay day positioning a couple of letters to amuse anyone who dare take the time to look at it close enough.
It certainly makes you think…
