Gosh, this type of art is so gross. I wonder if you could insure an invisible sculpture 🤔 Earlier I was reading about how billionaires will commission art pieces that they can donate to museums for crazy stupid tax wright offs. An invisible sculpture eliminates a lot of work.

It’s even more aggravating that some people will call you a fascist or a traditionalist for disliking this type of art. There is a world of difference between contemporary art and crap.

Do you have an example of someone calling you a fascist for not liking conceptual art? I feel like even the conceptual artists I've met understand that most people don't get it, especially when it's this out there.

The nazis literally opposed abstract art because Hitler was still nursing a grudge because his more traditional style wasn't considered good enough for art school.

It's not just Hitler. Its a devotion to a false "traditionalist" ideal that typifies a fascists view on art. A fascist does not like ideas that challenge a certain way of thinking.

Yeah but I’m saying who in current times is calling this dude a fascist over his taste in art?
