Artist secretly shares 'Meals For Thieves'

This… is a very odd sort of art. I don’t usually waste much time trying to say what is or isn’t art, but I do tend to think artistic expression should… well express something to an audience. I’m not sure what the audience here is. As performance art, there was exactly one person involved in the whole thing who actually knew the full picture. So it seems like the only person who actually got to enjoy the art was the artist. Unless the true medium is the artist telling us about this via the internet. I don’t think so though, as he refers to it as “designing an experience.” Which, again, is an experience entirely for him. That seems less like art and more like doing something unusual for a lark.
