#20 I don't get it. Art is too profound to understand.

Why anyone would even pay a cent for any modern art is beyond me,warhol,pollock and their ilk are just shite.

Even 1000$ is too much for a painting. It's funny how to-be artist goes to an art school, learns different painting techniques etc. and then makes some "masterpiece" that uses painting technique, color and style to "code" his message, whatever it might be. Then he puts it on the wall for everyone to see, but only those who have also studied painting can decode it. Or at least they think they have decoded it... To us normal peole it's just meaningless shit like picture #20. I've seen similar "paintings" made by house painters, who uses a piece of cardboard under his feet to prevent paint spilling on the floor. Greatest sham ever. If I could convince some air-headed world famous art critic that I'm the next Van Gogh, I would go travelling abroad until I got bloody diarrhea from bad food. Then I would wipe my ass on different size canvases and sell them for $100 million each. And everyone would be happy.

People are buying the name not the painting or whatever.

#20 I have many of them at home

Art is always about "something hidden." But does it help us connect with that hidden something? I think it moves us away from it.

Why would you pay a movie ticket? Why would you pay much for a nice car? Why would you pay much for a big beautiful house? FUCK YOU that's why.

140 million dollars. for that.

#16 - ninety five dollars and twenty cents? That's more like it.

and I bet that not one of them there painter guys have ever checked out a pic dump site... dumb asses..

HEHE. I'VE TROLLED YA'LL MODERN FAKKERS!!!

@mm, itsme, zut... Poor idiots, i pity you...

art is a feeling inside, a movement, a story that many will never understand..

I have never understood art. #20 looks like someone got shot and fell into a pool of mustard. People spend like 10 minutes on a painting that's worth millions of dollars while another person spends a year on a painting that's worthless. I don't get it.

number 8!!! wow! that is awesome!

what are the criteria to evaluate a painting, is it just the price it was last sold for ??????????? this is mankind going crazy ... really!!!!!!

Go to the Hermitage in St. Petersburg and visit the Picasso room. It all makes more sense when you see it in person. He's fucking incredible!

i dont really understand art but i have paintings of my own that i will never get rid of i love them and i feel that some day after im long gone they will become famous paintings.
