Steve, I know you were making a joke, but it's important to distinguish between works of art and works of art that someone likes. We all have our personal tastes, but that doesn't necessarily mean that art we don't like is bad art. Some art is intended to repulse.
Hi Chris, You know what? A part of me was joking and a part of me was serious. I guess I am just a little bemused by all the differing opinions on what defines good art. My point is it is such an objective thing that I wonder if it can really be defined for everyone.
I think Hitler tried to define what was good art and what wasn't, and we all know what happened to him
I see art all around me every day, some I like and some I don't like, (my personal taste) but I don't consider the art that I don't like to be bad art, it"s just art that doesn't rock my boat.
Cheers mate,
Steve.
