It's a great presentation, and way more involved than the typical "what is art?" discussion that I usually find pretty tiresome.<br /><br />Thanks for the post, Christina!Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06885271094483228148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734322865929987142.post-42817474162043819022010-04-13T00:45:44.378-04:002010-04-13T00:45:44.378-04:00Only had a chance to watch the first of the six se...Only had a chance to watch the first of the six segments so far, but it's great having these points brought into discussion in a rational way...jpmagg3https://www.blogger.com/profile/08402312682380835514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734322865929987142.post-56624330212988366002010-04-12T23:17:25.165-04:002010-04-12T23:17:25.165-04:00Now THIS is the post I thought would be a big disc...Now THIS is the post I thought would be a big discussion.

They haven't the talent to develop true painting/drawing skills so they are threatened by those who have mastered these disciplines. <br /><br />I'm a lowly cartoonist and off the top of my head I'll come up with a modern art "concept". First glue four wooden poles into a 2x4 and place on the ground. Then glue four plates on top of the four poles. Now place a sandwich on plate one, a sandwich with two bites taken out of it on plate number two, a half eaten sandwich on plate number three and a few bread crumbs on plate number four. I call my masterwork..."Life Of A Sandwich". Now all I have to do is have an influential art critic or two champion my "genius" and I'm on easy street!Daryll Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12724129756643386846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734322865929987142.post-57112872383054313742010-04-12T16:07:32.685-04:002010-04-12T16:07:32.685-04:00Thanks for posting it.
