modern art can be stupid. it can be pretentious. but by god if i am not angered every time i see some stuck-up kid look at a piece and say “oh i can do that” or dismiss it as “easy” or “lazy” just on appearance alone.
every time i see a comment like that i think of barnett newman’s “who’s afraid of red, yellow, and blue III”. newman specified in abstract expressionism, which is the same field as artists such as jackson pollock.
Tumblr media
this is the original piece. it was part of a collection of works, all utilizing just the three primary colors in different ratios and compositions. it may not look it, but this piece is huge.
Tumblr media
anyways. when it first premiered, people were pissed. they hated it. it was an affront to art, it was so easy, it had no meaning, it made them sick. it was just a huge red slab of paint with barely any contrast. the museum it hung in got tons of hate mail weekly from people writing in about how much they hated the piece. and one day, all that hatred built up, as someone took a box cutter to the piece, ruining the work. and people LOVED him for it. some even wrote in saying he should be the new museum director for his creative vision.
the painting sat for a while, torn apart. people were afraid to touch it. as easy as it may have looked, newman was an expert of his craft. the paint was evenly distributed throughout the whole canvas, with not a single brushstroke to be seen. that’s no easy feat. accomplishing that on a normal piece would be hard, but even harder as a restoration, because any imperfection would be instantly spotted against newman’s expertise.
finally, someone took up the job . . . by further ruining the piece. you see, when doing art restoration, it’s imperative that anything you do can be undone. art restoration should not be permanent. the restoration should be able to be removed, in case it needs to be restored again, or returned to its original state. and the guy who took up newman’s work? he used house paint. acrylic, the same type you’d use on your living room’s accent wall. and to top it all off, he didn’t use a paintbrush, like newman. he used a roller. he didn’t even bother to attempt to recreate newsman’s skills, and instead took the easy way out, only ruining the painting further.
and to top it all off? when the painting was put back up in museums, people hated it. but not for the reason they had before. now, they hated it because it was different. the new paint had none of the shine of its original, now a dull counterfeit of its predecessor. all of its depth was gone. and people were mad! they wanted their old piece back, the one that made them sick with anger to look at. they hated the original, but now, they hated its recreation even more, because it failed to instill the same emotion the original once did.
some modern art is lazy. most is not, and it’s been shown time and time again that, if you just take a second to analyze it and look into the artist’s methods, it’s something that takes a very high level of skill to accomplish. stop shitting on it just because some pretentious assholes exist.

objectively it’s hysterical that the anne carson translation of sapphic fragment 69 is just. the word sinful
