when you grow as an artist and an individual and realize that it isn't a meme, it's a movement, and art is full of movements with all sorts of aims and aesthetics that you aren't required to like.

personally I hate most minimalist work, and quite a bit of abex as well, especially color field artists, but I don't create threads every week to bitch and moan about it.

Don't mention Picasso, it's a magical word that summons a retard who rants about his conspiracy theory regarding the artist's father.

Also I see very little expressionism on this board so I don't think your analysis of /ic/'s tastes is entirely accurate.

(after discussing Kandinsky, the Futurists, Neo-Plasticism, and Constructivism)

>I have learned a lot from all of them and they have confused me plenty too. One thing is certain, they didn’t give me my natural aptitude for drawing. I am completely weary of their ideas now.

>The only way I still think of these ideas is in terms of the individual artists who came from them or invented them. I still think that Boccioni was a great artist and a passionate man. I like Lissitzky, Rodchenko, Tatlin and Gabo; and I admire some of Kandinsky’s painting very much. But Mondrian, that great merciless artist, is the only one who had nothing left over.

-Willem de Kooning, 1950
