So the ONLY way to provide a valid criticism is to be able to show examples of one's own ability in regard to the criticized subject matter? When someone provides an opinion with grand generalizations, the only way to judge what that person thinks is good is to view his gallery or his favored artists list. That is the only face/example you show here unless you hang around the forums and establish a reputation. Soultaker has no gallery and of the 37 artists on his list i sampled several and noticed all that i viewed fall into what appears to be his catagories of "not art". From what i can tell from his favored artists, he likes pin-ups with painted hair. >Serious question 1: Is a single frame extracted from a security camera operated randomly and automatically in the corner of an empty warehouse "art"? If so, why so? yes, intent. it was composed/collected and displayed. even a randomly operating camera must be set to operate randomly. If you only appricate art because it was difficult to produce, then you are not appricating the art. >Serious question 2: Is there such a thing as bad art? If so, why so? Good and bad are opinions of the viewer. SoulTaker did not say there was not good art here. He said or rather bluntly implied in his first two sentences that there is NO art here.
