I’ve (sadly) only been to one art museum in my entire life. While on a business trip to England, I had the chance to visit the London Museum Of Art. I was mesmerized for 9 hours! I was particular enthralled by “Blue Boy” and “The Martyrdom of Stephen“; the skill, the detail, they looked like living beings. The blood oozing from “Stephen” looked real, I swear it. “Blue Boy” looked like he was ready to shake my hand, I swear it. Simply saying “stunningly beautiful” does the art injustice.
But, alas, I recently discovered that Renaissance art is nothing but white supremacy / racism run amuck. I am so ashamed. I will dedicate my life to only looking for awesome black art, which has what white art lacks; “soul”, brother.
On
So, imagine my joy when the NJ Shit Ledger dedicated a full page to a black artist (from the Ivory Coast) named Frederick Bruly Bouabre. He has produced thousands of paintings, and several hundred are currently on display at the Museum Of Modern Art in NYC. He is a painter, artist, writer, inventor of his personal alphabet, and founder of his own religion. He’s quite the Renaissance Man and you can read more about him HERE.
The author of the Shit Ledger article, Sebastian Smee*, has nothing but the highest praise for Freddy. It’s a “display unlike any I have seen” … and “at once overwhelming and refreshing” … and, “a spur to laughter, fascination and philosophical reflection” … and “it is art that rinses the mind like cool, silken water drenching a heat-flushed face” ….. and so on for what seemed forever.
[*Sebastian Smee — I believe he is legally blind in one eye and can’t see out the other.]
Of course, I know you all are just dying to see some that art. “Show us the damned pictures, Stucky!!“. OK … I’m going to just post five of them. You’ll get the idea by then. (NOTE: The names of the pictures are MINE. This way you can refer to them more easily, if you so desire.)

The other 1,000+ paintings are pretty much the same. I am trying so damn hard to like these paintings! Really. But, I just can’t seem to grok any of it. This is damned depressing to me because it seems that I am truly a fucking white supremacist. I don’t whether I should see a therapist to help cure me, or if I should just accept than I am what I am.
Jesus, nothing but WHITE people!! This ugly talent-less painting by some old dead white dude really is RACIST, man.
THE END
Multi culture BS is destroying western civilization. From art, to music, to literature to architecture.
I’ll have to agree with some on here that it is intentional and often promoted by Jewish people who are in control of almost all of these industries.
Art museums have gone totally woke.
As far as I know, the only places in Massachusetts that still require masks are Mass MoCa and The Clarke. Pretty good indicator that you are correct.
the only art i see here is your hilarious presentation!
It is beyond disgusting. What used to be inspirations are now abominations that celebrate mud peoples mud scribblings.
It was truly not long after I become a patron of the arts that they began to be desecrated. I feel blessed to have witnessed the magnificence of ballet, symphony, and even play, before they became verboten. I can’t even find an orchestra that isn’t doing some pop bullshit. They gave up. I don’t know if I can blame them. I bet they do the classics among themselves.
It makes me wonder, what wonders will be remembered of our time, because when else is there luxury for the arts except right before the fall?
I don’t think it’s multi-culture really. It’s just anti-white culture.
Speaking of british museums: Actually THE British Museum.
In 2007, I went there with my now-husband. To my surprise, they had the Rosetta Stone there, when I always thought that Rosetta was the first name and Stone the last name of the founder of a language software company.
True story. And THAT is how educated I am!!!
He still teases me about that.
You aren’t alone. I thought Bono was the name of Cher’s latest world farewell tour and Led Zepplin was the name of a guitar player.
And Joslyn Elders likes Eric Clapnor. Whoever the hell he is.
Somebody help me out here. How do you dv something that harmless. I also thought Lynyrd Skynyrd was a dude. Was LZ a chick?
And that Marshall Tucker and that Loneliest Monk fellow are both pretty good, too.
The story gave me a warm smile.
I don’t know what art is but I know what I don’t like.
I actually kind of like the one titled “WTF”.
Not saying it’s art, but I kinda like it.
Maybe it’s the title.
This joker’s “art” looks like some 3rd grade kid made it. I’m not an artist and I could do better–therefore what this clown puts out is not ‘art’ but trash.
“Renaissance art is nothing but white supremacy”
it is. embrace it.
Ain’t it great!
There was an art critic in the, fifties, sixties and seventies by the name of Clement Greenberg, Clement, a communist and probably on the CIA payroll, singlehandedly promoted Abstract Expressionism, and denigrated any and everything that smacked of culture, talent, beauty and relevance. He referred to the art of Norman Rockwell as kitsch and waxed rhapsodic over the drooling of Pollock. His was the sine qua non of the avant garde which is French for people with more money than sense, and he convinced these monied simpletons that drools of paint on a huge canvas were far superior to anything from the brush of Rubens or Rembrandt.
One of the many goals of global communism is the destruction of Western Civilization and where better to start than with art?
Jackson Pollock….
and Norman Rockwell…
“he convinced these monied simpletons”
how? my experience is that almost no-one can be convinced of anything at all unless they already believe it or already desire the outcome they envision arising from it.
BINGO!!! Few people realize this. Truer words have rarely been spoken on TBP.
For a truly magnificent study on the effect of art on culture it is imperative to read Francis Schaeffer; How Shall We Then Live.
Post modernal deconstructionism – the enlightenment movement which sought, still does, to turn everything upside down. The goal was to destroy art like mentioned and architecture, family structure, everything that was considered modern, mainly conservative.
A dogs breakfast of ‘styles’ all jammed together. The uglier the the building the more the fake ‘experts’ would faun…
I like it
I gotta agree with the spook. We have one of Pollock’s major works, Blue Poles here in Australia. If you stand in front of it, it is in my opinion a powerful and significant work. While I cannot deny the skill of Norman Rockwell it’s just commercial art, usually copied from a photograph, not much different from a Coke ad. And like an ad, designed to manipulate your emotions.
Having said that the work of art which had the most impact on me was Dali’s Crucifixion at the Met in NYC. It brought me to tears. I’d travel half way around the world to see it again.
Oh Hell no…Voltara
Can’t you see that old resigned man sending off another kid? Too tired to keep his head up after seeing too much already.
The youngster beaming with hope.
And the dog understanding the drift.
That Rockwell ain’t a coca cola advertisement. Lots more than that.
Did you miss the pocket watch underlining the entire theme?
Voltara has drunk deep from the stream of post modernism and the school of deconstructionism. Pollock merely dribbled paint, there was no skill, no talent, no ability to draw or do much of anything except slap paint around, and, a chimpanzee can do as Pollack did and do it better. No talent, no struggle to learn or improve a craft, no effort, no meaning,or beauty, instead, banality and mediocrity and jejune dabblings are elevated, any monkey can do it.
What happens when mastery, talent, exceptional skill and hard work are denigrated and mediocrity is elevated? Look around you, you see ther results everywhere. People aren’t promoted based on skill or experience, the only things necessary are skin color and sex. Isn’t it great having an affirmative action hire doing work that should only be done by someone who knows what they’re doing. I sure want a surgeon who’s only claim to fame is their skin color operating on me, and I’m sure you feel the same way…right?
…I think I am learning when to shut up, but that is a rare up thumby from me to you, Mygirl.
Go read “The Painted Word’ by Thomas Wolf to understand how ‘modern art’ came to be the leading art expression….
To the empty nonsense of the modern art world. It takes a respected writer to say that the emperor has had no clothes for a while – and that modern art has been a dance between money and intellectual aspiration, mediated by art critics. Art criticism reminds us that it is possible for smart people to convince others of nonsense by sufficiently clever wordplay, on the edge of what sense, so that the reader always feels that they almost ‘get it’. It is sold in large doses of meaningless theory, with small nuggets of truth. …
For a long time, I thought modern art was just people who couldn’t paint selling to people who couldn’t afford real art. Then modern art got expensive, so I figured I was wrong. Now I’ve concluded that I was half right. I’m 75, so I’m not likely to change my opinion again.
…. In Tom Wolf’s opinion. You could read The Shock of the New by Robert Hughes for a different perspective.
But aren’t most things produced by man inferior? Don’t we always have to sort the wheat from the chaff, the sheep from the goats, the fine from the coarse? Personally I cannot declare all modern art to be inferior, though a majority certainly is. No doubt there was also plenty of inferior work produced in the renaissance. And maybe in another 100 years people will look back at the 20th century and declare it to be a golden age. cheers!
Mygirl, I agree with you. However TBP must be unhappy with you, as it ignores my upvotes to your comment. So please take this as an upvote.
Interesting comments, MyGirl, thanks. I’m just offering a personal opinion and I’m happy to hear yours. I agree with you on a lot of modern art. It’s gimmick based. It looks pretty on a wall or captures some element of current fashions. However I don’t believe that’s the case with Pollock. I can’t rationalise my opinion, it’s how the works I have stood before have affected me.
I can tell you when I was in NYC last time I visited the Fisk gallery and then afterwards the Guggenheim. I spent as much time looking at a single Holbein painting at the Fisk as I did the whole collection on display at the Guggenheim. So I sort of agree with you, but I wouldn’t put Norman Rockwell in the same category as any of the great painters. He is a commercial artist.
If you mean the circular object hanging from the man’s left shirt pocket, that’s no watch. It is a paper tab used to terminate the drawstrings of a tobacco pouch.
Bull Durham tobacco most likely.
I see it. The old man who has worked with his hands sending his son off to start what he hopes is a better life than his own. I just don’t think there’s anything clever about it except the technical skill on display
Voltara – right you are. Pollock was a creator, a visionary. Some folks don’t like his stuff, but whatever. Norman Rockwell was a nice painter. A very admired painter. But few knowledgeable art historians would put him in the league of Pollock. Those saying he just dripped paint are ignorant. It really is that simple.
I have seen many up close. They have to be experienced to understand the power they convey.
Rothko is another painter whose works must be experienced up close to appreciate. And by up close, I mean way up close. Even inches. The experience is memorable.
Norman Rockwell was a very good painter of Americana. He was able to convey a lot about times and people in his paintings. But he was not a Pollock, nor a Rothko. I enjoy similar art by Australian artists, such as Hugh Sawrey, Darcy Doyle, Pro Hart, David Boyd, etc., and collect similar paintings. As I will never afford a Pollock.
Llpoh, please explain how splashing paint is superior to knowing how to draw, understanding composition and anatomy, color, and conveying meaning? You admire dabs of color and Pollock? Just as an FYI: Peggy Guggenheim banged him, seems he had a biggus dickus, and Peggy of the lots of money clan, extolled him to the cognoscenti as a reward for services rendered. Ditto for Picasso who had no issues with sleeping with men if it would promote his art.
Not all critics were quite so effusive. Yet Pollock’s inclusions in Guggenheim’s 1942 ‘Spring Salon for Young Artists’ generated some portentous earlier notices. The New Yorker’s Robert Coates wrote that “in Jackson Pollock’s abstract “Painting” [Stenographic Figure], with its curious reminiscences of both Matisse and Miró, we have a real discovery’”; while the great American critic Clement Greenberg wrote that Pollock’s works were ‘among the strongest abstract paintings I have yet seen by an American.’”
Then we have his promotion via Greenberg, of whom I spoke earlier. Generally speaking, those ‘great’ artists were all marketed in the same way that talentless rap ‘singers’ and toothpaste are marketed. You can appreciate the ‘greatness’ but understand that said ‘greatness’ was manufactured and promoted, extolled by people with an agenda.

You can take a square of lioleum tile, expand it and have a “Pollock” for a very affordable price….

You think Pollock didn’t know how to draw? That is ignorant. You may not like his stuff, but to suggest he didn’t know how to draw in a more traditional style is absurd.
He didn’t just splash paint. The technique used was highly refined and highly technical. The lines and colors are planned, distinct, sharp, textured. There was planning and execution and free flowing as well. There was developed skill. It took months to paint some of his works. And no, you cannot take a square of vinyl as an approximation of Pollock. A Pollock can elicit a range of emotions in its viewers.
Have you ever seen one close up? Ever? I have seen a significant number. Same goes for Rothko. And same goes for many modern and old masters. And they are very special indeed.
Artists are marketed. That is how they earn a living. They have sponsors and benefactors. Or they don’t tend to remain artists, as starving tends to happen without sponsors. And Pollock was not marketed like a rap artist. His break came when Life did a story on him in 1949 by memory – one of the few painters that became successful during their lifetime. Your take on this is absurd. You clearly are clueless about this stuff. Once you have been exposed to great art, over and over, over years, you slowly develop an understanding. You do not have it.
BTW, the sculpture that Yo put up is a wondrous thing, maybe approaching great art. It is more an exercise in craft than great art in my opinion. It lacks the emotion that a Michelangelo is able to convey, or the power of a Rodin. The sculptor was highly skilled, but was not in that league.
I love it when people with little exposure to art think they have a clue. Go spend some weeks at the Louvre, the Prado, in Venice, Florence, Paris, London, Madrid, Rome, NY, etc. Go take private tours with art historians, art professors, etc., go take art history classes, go to major exhibits, go study for a few months and get back to me.
Surely, thou art trolling.
Surely, thou can not mean what thou art saying … for what thou sayith is a very large pile of poopy-kakka … or, in NJ-speak “a yuge load of bullshit”.
“Surely, thou art trolling”
yes an no.
traditional art communicates emotions via what you already know. “modern” art attempts to affect the mind directly, bypassing any prior knowledge or cultural setting.
when “modern art” succeeds it is quite impressive. when it fails the failure can be, and often is, covered by rhetoric and gaslighting.
Llpoh, you haven’t a clue about what all I know about art. I’m a professional artist you dolt, I do this for a living, I have taught in universities, I have a Doctorate equavalency (MFA) in studio art and over 30 hrs of Art History. I AM a studio artist who paints and makes a very good living doing so. I have been to the Louvre, Prado, etc. and I don’t need an ignoramous who hasn’t held a brush or drawn a straight line to tell me about art. Go peddle your bullshit to someone stupid enough to believe Pollock could draw.
Your ignorance and hubris is astonishing….and you hang your ass out bleating the same nonsense the ‘art critics’ who get paid to bleat and blather, consciously or unconsciously, the party line that exalts ineptitude and mediocrity over talent, skill, hard work and training.
No real artist would suggest that Pollock just splashed paint is absolutely ignorant. Oooh – 30 hours of art history. No serious scholar would suggest such an ignorant thing. Scientists have studied what he did, because it is almost impossible to reproduce. He was using methods of fluid dyanamics to control how he applied paint. And you say he just splashed it around. Amazing the depth of stupid that people portray at times.
A no talent hack is what you are if you think Pollock simply splashed paint. You make a living as a professional artist? Riiiiiiight.
And you lie out your ass to say MFA is an Doctorate equivalency. It is a terminal degree, but it sure as hell ain’t a doctorate equivalency. It is a two year program, and is in now way equivalent to a 4 or more year PHD. That is head up your ass make believe bullshit and you know it. My MBA is a terminal degree – so I get to say it is a PHD equivalent? What a complete load of self-serving delusional horseshit.
I don’t believe a word of what you are saying. I have spoken to a great many true art historians with real PHDs about Pollock – not one of them suggests he just splashed paint around. That is bullshit.
“He was using methods of fluid dyanamics to control how he applied paint”
yeah. splashing. that’s fluid dynamics.
“Scientists have studied what he did, because it is almost impossible to reproduce”
it’s called randomization. random splashing.
seriously, it looks like something on the deck after drunk sailors have finished painting the overhead cables and pipes.
I’ll vouch for that. I too have seen her work and have to admit to being humbled by my former opinion of her. I respected her as a tough adversary but had no idea what lurked in her innards in the form of artful expression.
Llpoh…keep digging that hole….LOL! ….you don’t know squat and bleating your pompous ignorance don’t make what you say relevant. I find you funny in a sad way especially your VAST acquaintance with them thar ‘true’ Art Historians. There are videos of Pollock slinging paint off of ladders….of course his ‘slinging’ was artistic and in no way mimicked how a four year old would ‘sling’ said paint:)))
“An MFA degree can take up to four years to complete, with two to three years being the most common. An accelerated one-year program is likely to require year-round work and some credit from either previous coursework or work experience.”
and…
“To earn a doctorate degree can take anywhere from four to six years of full-time study, depending on the structure of the program, the field of study that you choose, and the educational establishment that is providing you with the opportunity to earn the degree.”
And….the amount of time spent acquiring said degree depends on what the degree is in. Here, go educate yourself…Clement Greenberg, former necktie salesman, suddenly famous ‘art critic’ promoted Pollock….Greenberg was a fraud….but….

So, you are doubling down on stupid. A MFA is not a PHD equivalent. If it were a doctorate, they would call it so. If an MFA takes more thann2 years, it is part time.
Keep digging….nice try at deflection….but, your ass is hanging out bigly…Studio art, the highest degree attainable is what? MFA. What is highest degree attainable in other disciplines and areas of study? Doctorate. Both are terminal degrees.
Go back and drool over drools of paint, make yourself feel intelligent because you do what you are told to do and believe what the marketing team has programmed you to believe.
I don’t need to ‘study’ to know that a bunch of splashed paint is not art. A primate can do it, even I can do it and I’m most certainly not an artist.
Umm, no it cannot. Give it a go. Send us a pic.
Interesting. Sounds like the low talent starlet sleeping with a movie producer, doesn’t it? Bingo. “Rising young star!”
MyGirl, I get where you are coming from but to me the skill of the artisan and the creativity of the artist are two different things. The ideal is a combination of the of the two, but it is not necessary for both to be present.
Thanks Llpoh, I’m with you. I’ve tried a few times to reproduce what Pollock managed to achieve. It looks simple but I’ve dribbled gallons of paint on canvasses and it’s never worked. His paintings are to me beautiful and highly emotive. I can’t explain why.
Art is like lunch. You can have a big mac or you can go to a french restaurant. That’s what makes it interesting, cheers
Voltster I’m really sorry for you that you miss Rockwells soul. I lived in the tail end of the ere shown in that picture. It tells an entire story for me and many like me. That could have been me and the old man waiting at a siding ready to light that lamp and flag the train down in the middle of nowhere except that I dropped out in the 9th grade. The sandwich in the kids lap, loving made by his female fan club back at the house. The dog the kid raised from a pup who knows the score because he remembers the last time his master carried it to that spot he didn’t see him again for 8 months. I could go on but it would be vain digression.
You also apparently have no idea what was done to you by the “Company” who dehumanized an entire population methodically and deliberately.
While taking an art 101 class, the teacher made her living painting clouds for businesses to hang on their walls without windows. This was in Honolulu. We did paint a nude woman that was in the movie “Inherit the Wind” (1960), but it was 1990 and she was pear shaped and blind.
A monkey could paint as well as this Pollock character.
Great art came move one to tears with the beauty of it. I was spellbound for the entire time watching the Bolshoi Ballet perform ‘Swan Lake’. I’ve sat in my car after arriving home, not wanting to turn off the radio listening to Beethoven’s ‘Moonlight Sonata’. I’ve been taken in by stunning European Master’s paintings. I’m in awe of sculptors like Michelangelo. I’ve marveled at amazing English architecture from hundreds of years ago still standing today as a testament to the men who designed and built it. This is the heritage of my people, and I’m proud to be one of them.
when western civilization downturns, I wonder what will happen to all that art. will it be housed in some hidden vault, or will it all be burned?
“Michael Angelo”
(laugh)
much like the heroic citizens who spirited away the priceless treasures to keep the Taliban from blowing them up, and much like the movie The Monuments Men, there will always be some paintings books and statues preserved for the ages..while diversity spray paints the walls..//
Much of it will remain but its meaning will be lost
You ain’t seen nothing yet when it comes to “art”. I went to the van Gogh museum in Amsterdam back in 1994 and in the entry foyer was a gigantic display of neon “art” with about 20 men engaging in gay sex acts. The west has offered nothing but degeneracy for decades.
Compare this African degenerate art to that offered in eastern Europe.
I like this version that T4C posted once. Has a masculine feel.
Absolutely beautiful. Hypnotic.

Mr. Hardscrabble Farmer hit the nail on the head with his post yesterday. Make certain your ducks are in a row, show loved ones the way, and be done with this fallen nation or whatever fallen nation you’re living in.
“be done with this fallen nation”
be prepared to do that over and over and over again, in every generation, as the ones behind all this infest each new nation you build and refuse to defend.
Who’s the ‘you’, my friend?
“who’s the ‘you'”
seems like most people. have a perfectly good nation here with lots of individualists loudly proclaiming “come and take it!”, meanwhile the capture and subversion of the nation continues without interruption. if these manage to built a new nation on the wreckage they won’t defend that one any more than they’ve defended this one.
ran t 7 -I hear you. I wanted to believe the government and it minions wouldn’t treat America and its citizens this way. In March 2020 I hoped the shelter in place order wouldn’t morph into a lockdown, even though I knew in my heart it was the implementation of a totalitarian system. On that day in March, I heard the news, sat down and begin making lists of what I’d need to do to help myself and family survive. It meant lots of money for food and time creating back-up plans, buying medications, and to this day-getting screamed at by family. I can’t fix a dead nation; I can adroitly manage and maintain my corner and circle. If I have to take leave and find another corner, I can do that, too. It’s not that the USA is beyond saving, it’s that the demons running the show have lots of money and muscle the rest of us don’t have. If anyone has the power to fix things on a national level, why hasn’t it been done? Why is everything continuing to spiral out of control? I act upon what I personally see, hear, and experience. I’m not expecting anything positive to come of events taking place; I do expect to survive. One problem or concern is the view of government. It’s not that people are so enamored of the U.S. government, it’s that the government is all that they have. My hope isn’t in the government.
It all comes down to leadership or lack thereof.
It is like editorial we only you.
Real talent, hard work and common sense is
Racisssssssst!
yes.
Every time these peoples of coloreds turns on an electric light, rides a train, plane or car, turns on the A/C, talks on the phone or enjoys any of the many modern luxuries they take for granted, they are appropriating white culture and should be ashamed of themselves.
most of them can’t comprehend any such thing. they jus’ doin’ what they gotsta do.
They gets all they chicken at Popeye’s.
The Europeans tried to build up Africa but it was a fools errand; the niggers murdered them and then everything fell apart. The communist blame the Colonialist of course instead of the low IQ subhumans.
As simply as Ayn Rand said:
“Don’t set out to raze all shrines, you’ll frighten men. enshrine mediocrity-and the shrines are razed”
Actually — today we’ve got both — mediocrity is the ‘new normal’ — and the shrines (to our Nation and its History and Culture and Traditions) have been destroyed …
Game … set … and now they’re ready to strike the match …
A mediocre person is always at their best.
Congo Time.
If you look for something positive to say you can always find something.
Soooo – notice they did a great job of coloring within the lines, I’m impressed!
So this “artist” Frederick Bruly Bouabre is just putting out shitty drawings that were done with a pencil and some crayons and people are calling that shit art?
It looks like something a 4 year old did.
“It looks like something a 4 year old did.”
it is. that’s his capacity.
Have you ever seen a White 4-year old draw/paint such things?
Maybe after a year or 2 of lgbtqrstuvwxyz indoctrination …
Been to too many to count. Louvre, Florence, Sistine Chapel, seen David in Florence, even places in China etc. I liked everything I saw. But I was not the impressed with Van Gogh or much of any modern art. As some guy wrote about the condition of blacks back 100 years ago, wish I could remember who, they walk on diamonds, have a resource rich country and still live in mud huts and burn shit for heat and they will never change
Art Institute of Chicago has the best impressionists, including Seurat’s Sunday in the Park…But they’re crazy too…
You have outdone yourself. LMAO!!
Stucky,
It looks like you may have been asking some very well thought out and articulated questions regarding biblical end times on Grace thru Faith.
If so bravo.
but…but…but… it’s very accessible…
I think they should put that art in an African garbage can where it belongs! Or we could also find some kindergartners that could draw some better stuff for us.
so long as they’re not white kinder ….
That first photo – that’s what you call a ‘dick head’.
Doesn’t have too much of anything to do with Stuckys’s article but always good for a laugh.

How much fo dat paint’n? Gimme sum o dat.
That last painting, the one by the racist, the guy at the far right, doesn’t he appear to be looking back at the “cameraman”? Almost creepy, however intended.
it’s the artist or the patron. that was typical of the times.
If you get back to London, strongly urge to block 2-3 days to spend at the “Tate” and “National” museums.
None of you white devils is worthy to gaze upon the wonderment that is………..WAKANDA !
Artful bald-headed sheboons crafting fine art from tree branches-rocks-grass – clods of dirt and elephant dung.
All white mans art was stolen from WAKANDA !
that really is what they think. no joke.
I know……………thats what happens when you let the teevee do the thinking.
Nothing like patronizing the uncivilized among us for fear they will revert back to their animalistic violent behavior .
Happens all the time in cities with a high density of black people . The murder and mayhem in a majority of US cities is a prime example .
The ultimate collapse is coming , prepare to defend yourselves or be eaten , literally !

Didn’t you recently admit to being a homo?

Do you think that the artist is unaware of just how poorly he paints? Or the simpleton reviewer?
They are actors playing the parts of artist and critic, but that does not make them an artist and a critic.
This is no different than the endless gaggles of “homeless vets” who beg money at every urban intersection, like Eddie Murphy in Trading Places. They know they aren’t fooling anyone, but in an economic transaction there has to be some sort of value for goods or services and the act is what they are trading in.
This is the real narrative of America, the great bullshit story that provides cover for an empty shell behind it.
“Do you think that the artist is unaware of just how poorly he paints?”
yes. he really is unaware. more accurately, he is incapable of perceiving good art.
no. he is fully aware. he simply is jealous and hates anything better.
choose.
Who is the real fool?
One who creates refuse and calls it art or one who pays ridiculous fees for it and proudly hangs it on their wall?
One who freely and perpetually accepts the earnings of others or one who endlessly gives them.
The Liberal Zionist is the Facilitator of the White Fools.
“they aren’t fooling anyone, but in an economic transaction there has to be some sort of value for goods or services and the act is what they are trading in”
what does the giver receive in participating in a transaction he knows to be false?
Aggrandizement.
Right? You are the voice of all of the incredulous, HSF!
But I will expand for once: You really have to create to understand how people are trying to manipulate you. Your are either a creator or a manipulated. And the more I listen to comedy, the darker it gets for me, even though sometimes a joke just is funny. Probably. I am just tired.
“the endless gaggles of “homeless vets” who beg money at every urban intersection”
Now THAT would be an exemplary Armed Services recruitment Ad Campaign.
Takes my breath away!
I could not possibly write an article to do that block of marble justice. I’m just not that talented. Besides … the sculpture itself tells the story probably better than any human can.
I’ve never see that before. THANK YOU for posting it!!!
Are you sure it wasn’t done with a 3D printer?? Just too amazing. I’d guess it took a while….
maybe put it at the top of theburningplatform ….
I’m pretty sure you’ve posted that before.
Truly amazing work. It’s hard to believe that it’s all one piece of marble. It makes me wonder how many other similarly amazing works of art have been destroyed throughout the centuries in war, societal collapses, or just random catastrophes.
Ah those splendid white Adamites from a long line of amazing white people like Jesus.
Flea- I knew it, Jesus really did have blue eyes and the dirty blonde hair just like all the pictures in the Good Book. I knew they would not lie to me. Adamites R’ Us Flea.
God don’t make no junk. And yet TPTB would have us believe Christ was a mulatto cross between a Chink and a Spliv and that all 3 races mutated from the black Noah in just 2,300 short years.
Whitey is so badly pussified and cowed he won’t even dare to question the disparity between how long the Hebrews (us) were in Egypt. The Jew bible says 400+ years. The Septuagint and Samaritan texts say 215. 215 isn’t enough time for the Jews to morph into the chosen ones but whitey is Jewholmed out the wazoo so he lays down and takes the schlonging by Hymie and Lebron. Thank you Hymie I’ll have another please.
“Michael Angelo” – haha. Good one, ol’ Stucky
Black art? I didn’t know it was put in museums.
Usually, I see it on rail cars and bridge abutments, road signs, mens rooms, and in alleyways.
Art is definitely in the eye of the viewer, but seriously, how can anyone compare the work of this guy to any of the masters. At best, I would consider his work “folk art,” but there are countless folk artists who clearly have way more talent. As for black realist painters, just do a search for that phrase and look at the image results. There is real talent out there that might even rival the Renaissance painters. The difference of course being that during the Renaissance, perspective, and other critical aspects of realistic paintings was in its infancy as far as widespread use and acceptance. These were cutting edge artists creating masterpieces with nearly NO mentors or instructors. As for blind, do a search for blind artists and see their artwork. 1000 times better than this crap. Crap is crap. His stuff looks more like a 5th grade art class rendering than something that should be celebrated (by anyone other than the artists’ proud parents, and they don’t belong hanging anywhere more prominent than the home fridge.
I was raised to be non-racist. That worked well until my first encounter with another race that was determined to maintain its racial integrity (my boyhood friend was shot down by his own family). It only got worse and more agregious.
Blur birds flock together and red birds flock together. This is natural. I have no animosity for those others sold the same lie. But it can not go on, so it will not. No matter of any of our wishes for utopia. The imposters will fall again and it will go on until the end.
I have a lifetime of working with diverse peoples and all I can say is that only them that defend their own race do I trust and respect.
Why? Because they were the only ones who respected their selves and they taught me that.
“worked well until my first encounter”
the difference between propaganda and reality.
Wow. When I saw the bronze of “The Boxer” in the Italian National Museum. I thought it was realistic. That is some rope work.
Where’s the monkeys flinging shit painting? Whadda Whadda?
Allegedly 7 yrs. to ‘create’, 250+ yrs ago. Would have had to been done from the outside in to meet the definition of one piece. Extant to this day, all things considered? Probably nowhere near as difficult as carving a whole hollow egg with a flexible shaft tool or dremel at even a beginner level.
Notable Historical Figure Practiced at the Art of Deception. Can You Guess his name? Enough to make one wonder where the term ‘Pyramid Scheme’ came from.
Are you a moron? The guy carved a big piece of rock without breaking it with great precision. Fuck up an egg and start over. Fuck up that marble and 7 years gone.
Hunter Biden ( Wacky White, White power Sniffing and crack smoker extraordinaire) just needs to take the Usurper under his wings.
There is nothing that Hunter Bidens eyes have not seen, screwed, abused, slept with, tried and Lied about.
Just the right Muse for a Goose.
P.s Hunter B has some talent, a lot more than his Father.
BTW … Stucky your art is … Well.. Ok I have no comment other than U suck
If you have not seen this documentary and have even a passing interest in art, this is epic.
It tells the story of how the entire art world, from curators, critics, the top auction houses, gallery owners, and collectors were exposed as complete and utter frauds.
My personal belief is that the world of high end art collecting is nothing more than a massive money laundering scheme. None of these so-called priceless masterworks are anything of the sort. They are vehicles for the movement of dirty money and everyone is in on it. Had it not been for one particular collector and his wife who were duped out of millions of dollars by the Knoedler Gallery in Manhattan, no one would have caught on to Glafir Rosales, a border jumping grifter with all the panache of a stray dog who just happened to have access to more abstract expressionist paintings than the MOMA. Why a woman with the social graces of a hotel maid was able to obtain this treasure trove of artworks was never questioned as long as the money poured in. What was even more amazing was just how readily the foremost experts and dealers were able to pass these forgeries along with the full support and endorsement of the entire art world establishment.
Great story that explains why garbage is considered art and why real beauty languishes in relative obscurity.
About “One of biggest cons in american history”…😂
THE biggest con IS american history.
I would go with modern Hebrew which is basically Ebonicized Low German repackaged as the LinguaChosenatti.
Are you saying that I shouldn’t buy those tickets to yoko ono’s art show just yet?!?!?
“how could you devise such a scheme?”
look in the mirror. that’s how.
How is this different from what our government is doing and has for fifty years forced businesses to do: hire people because they’re part of a presumably discriminated against group. For fifty years, education, experience and other qualifications have been pushed aside in favor of “Equal Employment” which of course is anything but equal.
Crappy art. Crappy engineering. Crappy government. The current U.S. “president’s” cabinet is a perfect example. And I’ve been to a LOT of museums. I may not know art, but I do recognize garbage when I see it.
The art contests at the fairs are starting to look like charity work for retarded POCs and it is really unfair to those who dedicate themselves to their art.
