Words like composition, aesthetic, palette, and are replaced by retarded blithering on shapes and movement and ohh look at the pretty colours, while some retarded monkey blabbers about the artist message or some such shit.
Basicly art has been debased by consumer culture into a state where a fucktard can put up a painting, and noone will look at it and say 'fuck, that is the biggest piece of shit I've ever seen, get it out this gallery and put something worthwhile there', because they are afraid they might have the opposite opinion to someone cool.

What you say Anna is so very true. A painter makes two vertical stripes of blue on each outer edge of a panel. The centre of the panel is painted with a red vertical stripe. All stripes are of equal width. The painter calls it "Voice of Fire." The national art gallery goes crazy over it, pays millions of dollars for it, and trumpets the great purchase it has made. The average citizen see no artistic value or merit in it whatsoever and letters to the editors, of newspapers and magazines, point out that a person with a paint roller and masking tape can create the same thing in less than half a day. Of course the "arts community" immediately puts their collective nose in the air, sniffs as though having to breath in the odour of shit, and lets everyone, who is not an 'artist' know that only a great painter can produce such a masterpiece. What a load of crap. But that just shows that anyone can produce a work of art by giving anything (a painting, a sculpture, etc.) an artsy name. The know nothings who want to sound like they know everything will go along with it out of fear of not being thought of as artsy.
