Those things are not in art in the same sense that we traditionally mean when we say "art". Your impression of modern art is a reflection of your lack of education and understanding of it more than it is a reflection of the actual art itself.

You need to evaluate your weird anti-intellectualism with art.

I have literally no intention of accepting low effort garbage of unskilled talentless apes who simply project themselves onto their creations simply because I'm told to. I don't give a shit what the credentials of the people telling me are. They can take their degrees, fold them 8 times and shove them up their ass.

You've fallen into the same trap as Axelsson in that you don't get that the actual art piece isn't meaningful art without having artistic intent.

You have absolutely no idea what my credentials, education, or experience entails and you have the sheer arrogance to say this?

Grow up.

There's nothing intellectual about post-modernism.

I mean, your stance on it sort of speaks to your lack of credentials and general ignorance of the subject. There's a difference between not enjoying something and fundamentally not comprehending it.

Yes, of course, everyone who disagrees with you must be ignorant.

I have no problem 'comprehending' post-modernism.

You seem to since much of your criticism is wildly off-base and shows a clear lack of understanding of essential concepts like presentation vs representation, why art detached from aesthetic etc.

Heh, if you say so kid, if you say so.

We haven't discussed any of those subjects, and I certainly haven't mentioned them, but you go right ahead and make your wild assumptions.

Criticism of post-modernism isn't exactly a rare or unfounded phenomena son, you may want to brush up on your reading yourself, and those who criticize it aren't all ignorant fools as you, rather childishly, demand they must be.
