Whatever Happened to Subtlety in Art?
Posted by Rube | 8 May, 2005
Poking around Drudge this morning...ok, afternoon, I saw that there was yet another 'art happening' in which thousands upon thousand of people got naked in the street, most of whom probably for the first time in their lives. Now, I don't know much about art, but I know it's not particularly difficult or subtle to make an impression on people by slamming their eyes with thousands of naked people. Mona Lisa? That's subtlety defined; nothing extravagant there, just beauty in details instead of the weary inflation of subject matter that this knucklehead here is doing. Project stagnating? Just throw some nudists at it. That didn't work? Throw THOUSANDS at it. That'll get their attention, and that's really what this is all about, ain't it? Getting attention?
Or maybe it's because their all Belgians. Pervs.
