But to write music, you have to have to be able to play an instrument or sing and understand time structure. What fundamentals must an abstract artist know to create something like this:
It is incredibly insular. its like this giant baseball card scheme. Where the idle rich just throw money at shit to ensure exclusivity.
There are several problems with your statement. First, it is based on the idea the quality of an artwork is proportional to the difficulty of its craftsmanship. This notion died almost a century ago. But even if you think this notion should not have died, you picked a bad comparison and a bad example. A bad comparison because (almost) anyone can sing, say, 'Let it be' without being Lennon or McCartney and a bad example because Kandinsky was a pioneer of abstract expressionism, was an academically trained artist and wrote a number of theoretical books and essays on painting.
yes, thats why I said "everyone" and not "one person". go back to your human cloning trolling, a_skeleton_03
A better comparison of a music genre to abstract paintings would be something like this:
"Modern abstract art" to me is in the same category as Gucci clothing and other similar retardedly overpriced clothing. Rich people and "intellectuals" trying oh so hard to make themselves stand out and feel elevated amongst everyone else. We all know they are just dumbass suckers though.But there's some actual structure there. This giant pile of bird droppings sold for a record $140 million in 2006.
This splash of diarrhea went for $11.7 million in 2004
Here we see a canvas that someone spooged on before letting their poodle walk through, $20.5 millon in 2012.
And this is a nice example of spilled ashtrays and a small splash of your mom's period blood, $58,363,750 in 2013.
Yeah, art.
I dont think there is anything wrong with liking it, it just gets down right retarded when such paintings start selling for tens of millions of dollars and start receiving ungodly amounts of praise/admiration.Don't give a fuck about the meaning or whatever others think, I like to look at this painting, abstract or not.
I dont know about that. Clothing actually has a practical function and a role. If you're buying Gucci clothing, you're probably getting a fairly good quality item, that likely looks good and keeps you warm. Diarrhea on a wall doesnt even give me that unless I rip the canvas off the wall and set it on fire to keep warm for 15 minutes
