How do you know? Did he say it’s not art?
Some view it as art here, actually.
What does that mean? Is there a check list of what is or isn’t proper intentions?
I think the discussion over it is what matters. And what is art to one person, isn’t art to another. It’s what speaks to each individual that matters, in part because in theory, the division between art and artist, between gatekeepers and the “rabble” has completely broken down because any of us now have greater access to the tools for making art and the tools to share that art. I mean, this is the world that produced The Room!
And, yes that includes you saying that you don’t agree that it’s art. You are more than welcome to feel and believe that. I don’t think anyone is saying you can’t, but if someone finds artistic merit in it, then maybe it’s because it does speak to them in some way. If someone is moved by this work, then maybe there is something to it being a work of art…
This is the internet! No we don’t! ![]()
