Compare shit art like that to real art, like the Sistine Chapel





Last year when I wen to visit, I took out my phone and started taking video of the ceiling and was scolded by the cops. I played dumb and told them I was videoing it so there was no flash, but they still told me I should erase it. There were lots of people doing it though.

Yeah, in a lot of museums they will not let you take pictures. I wonder how the flash effects the painting.  :-\ :-\

No one is melting down. Clearly good art is respected. But when you paint 3 squares of colors and it sells for 75 million that is ridiculous. It has less to do with the money and more about the fact that pretty much anyone can call themselves an artist these days. :-\ :-\
