/lit/ - Literature

I hate when people do threads like this.

>This is Hemingway. He is [blablabla teaching /lit/]. Now your turn.

C'mon, man...

You're not looking hard enough. Not at all. People moved away from abstract a bit since the 80's, imo. And fuck, abstractionism is glorious... Specially expressionist ones.

And I don't know what you see in that guy. There is no amazing technique, no particular pallete and very dull themes with nothing to say. He is not relevant to art, he is famous on the internet alone, he pleases old ladies and young kids.

It's like you people have never been to a museum at all!

I'm sorry, I really don't want to sound condescending, but it makes me sad that people don't really appreciate visual arts as much as they could. They are either living in the past or they just appreciate industrial illustration... There is so much more to it and people often misjudge on contemporary artists mostly because they don't know, they don't actually go see it or try to think about it, create something. There is no intention in amplifying the artistic experience.
