I Love Art

The Baroque era is my favorite time period for art, music, and literature. The Renaissance is a close second. Can't say I'm a fan of anything after Dali, though. Modern art just seems so... empty.

Modern art is retarded. I know bc i live in NY.

Those new museums are just like ok here's a rock with bandaids on it. How brilliant. So pretentious

lol! I lived in NY for a while as well and hated it. :P I wouldn't say it's [i]all[/i] retarded - the concepts and ideas behind cubism and all those movements are great, just poorly executed.

@Azrael4321: That's true. I'm not sure when the "just b/c you can't understand it, that doesn't mean it's bad" movement started, but it is quite annoying. I personally think good art more less ended after the Luminists/Hudson River School. Haven't seen much worthwhile work since Thomas Cole and Frederic Church, sadly.
