What?! What are they crying about now?!

...so, are you actually saying he’s not black enough? cause I could probably find you quite a few white people to say he’s not white enough. The kind of white people you’d call racists. You know, the kind of people you see every day in the mirror, just of a different skin tone.
How did that song go? Ah yes: “and another one bites the dust”.
Meh, I’ve seen people wear Che Guevara on their T-Shirts and caps and the like. Poor taste is relative. Wasn’t there a Korean or Japanese pop group that was dressed in SS uniforms a while back?
Sigh...
My mistake, to make it clear, google autocomplete “is Proteus” with “a game”.
Sure it is, that’s why Google autocomplete “is Proteus” with “game”. Look, I’m not saying Proteus is bad, I’m just saying it’s not a game, and that’s OK.
I love how if I don’t think Proteus is a game I must just play FPS games and only FPS games, I just love this counter “argument”. I like Proteus, I even recommended it to people, I just don’t think it’s a game. I also like certain “sound novels”/””visual novels”. Guess what? I don’t think all of them can be called…
The same way going for a stroll in the woods or a park is not “playing outside”. It’s going for a leisurely walk..
I like the art style of this game and I liked Prtoteus but you calling Proteus a game kinds devalues your whole opinion in my eyes.
As I already said, if I need the artist besides me to tell me what is art and why it’s art then his art has no merit, no meaning, no substance.
In 1917 Duchamp turned a mundane object, an urinal, into a work of “art”(google Fountain by Duchamp). The mundane was turned into art by your “intention of the artist”. And then there are the cases like this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-26270260
Of course I don’t, I refuse to treat 4′33″ as a composition, song or music of any kind. I refuse to acknowledge the “artistic merit” of monochrome painted canvases. I refuse to recognize trash “carefully arranged” in an art gallery as art. I refuse to get high on my own farts and recognize any merit for a photo of a…
If the artists intent is all that separates art from the mundane then anything and everything can be art, and if that is the case, nothing is art.
It’s not a matter of lining it or not liking it, it’s a matter of not being able to distinguish it from litter left of the streets after a party and the meaningful expression of an artists will. If the artist telling me “this is art” about his work is a vital piece of me interpreting his art as such, if in the absence…
...so, by your definition, electro-magnetic stimulation of my prefrontal cortex is art? how about antipsychotic medication? how about antidepressants? how about hallucinogenic drugs?
Oh, please enlighten me and grant me a definition of art. No, wait. You can’t do that can you? for to define art is to tell me what art is, and to do that is to tell me what art is not, and this alas you won’t be able to do, will you?
And yet it’s the painting most of us will see not the process. The process stopped mattering when the painting started being displayed on their own. As for your second comment...
Being capable of doing something and actually doing it are two very different things. I don’t care how talented Jackson Pollock was, he still chose to waste, WASTE his talent on meaningless crap. I don’t care how talented modern artists are, I don’t care how many hours they spend painting the crap they do, if they…
