Kitsch will always have a very special place in my heart. I was given a very lovely poster of this piece:

OK, I'm going to weigh in here as I have an MFA from Pratt Institute. The term "art" is subjective. I remember the inception of 'conceptual art' when the artist would hang a piece of string on the gallery wall and be prepared with a treatise on the significance of the string. The spray painted piece seems more like illustration than art. It's formularized, but then again some would consider it 'art'. Personally I hold it with the same esteem I do for paintings of dogs playing cards on velvet. Now that is kitch. Sorry if I offended anyone reading this who has one of those. My sister an I used to call my mother the Queen of Kitch and now that she's gone we value her collection as camp. (but we keep it in the closet

I completely agree that the term 'art' is subjective, but I also know CB has pretty stringint opinions about Fine Art. Personally, I prefer folk art and the decorative arts and crafts to fine art in general.
I do think it is pretty neat what that guy can do in 9 minutes, but also, clearly, very commercial and kitschy, IMO. |
