A lot of people on Instagram are praising this artist. Can any other fellow artist here tell me what the fuck I’m missing or is this just more money laundering ? The artist is Robert Nava

    Isn't that kinda the point of the high art world though? Like when avant garde was more popular they said "you just don't get it" as a way to hand wave criticism. Now the obvious criticism is that it looks pretty childish which is true, but I can absolutely see some fart sniffing art critic saying "that's the point dummy"

    In reality all high art is just a way to move big money between benefactors and if their shitty kids are making art like 8 year olds then that's the art they're gonna buy.
