I went to a contemporary art museum with a friend a couple weeks ago, this thread reminds me of it. I remember standing in one of the main exhibit rooms, dirty burlap sacks covering half of the floor and plastered on the corner walls up to the ceiling, mannequins wrapped in blood-red ribbons standing in a line in front of a wall with random words about war and death incomprehensibly scribbled in red ink, horrible screams bleeding in from one of the video exhibits upstairs. I remember standing there, and wondering, "what went so, so wrong?"

Futurism is one of the only modern art styles that I like.

It's a real shame that most of you can only bring yourselves to appreciate the beauty of oil painting from the 19th century. Even worse is that you probably think it is representative of all pre-modern art. For your own sake you should look at more works and do some research.

Some kind of actual engagement with art would suffice instead of just saving pictures off the internet. I don't want to 'enlighten' you because that just means people here will be copying my opinion and repeating it like they know what they're talking about, which is exactly what I'm against. Like I said, for your own sake you should look at more work and do the research. It's about demonstrating your own awareness of history and developing that, rather than agreeing with the first person you think knows what they're talking about.

The last time I visited the permanent collection of a particular art gallery I wandered through gallery to gallery of pure naturalism; the least impressionistic of impressionism, random nude women in woodland scenes, neoclassical nymph after hackneyed neoclassical nymph. Luckily there was a Turner exhibition visiting so there was something I liked; but to the point, at no time did I arrogantly confuse my personal taste for some grand objective ascent of the visual arts.

I might be shooting myself in the foot right now. I believe that the humanities are the most important discipline [might not be the correct term]. However, all people I have meet who are studying humanities are a bunch of lazy arrogant assholes
