The above article is worth the read! It is basically just an article about a huge art piece that is going on right now in New York. It's pretty interesting, but the part of the article that made me want to share it and discuss it in my blog is because of the 2nd half of the article. If you read it, you'll notice that even the Artists involved are arguing about wether or not it should be considered art, or good art! Theres a pretty negative comment from the Director of the Italic Institute of America about how he thinks it "looks like a trailer park" and he's concerned with the safety! It made me giggle just a little because everytime we are in class for either of our classes together, this "what's Art" conversation comes up, and i kinda get the feeling like we are never going to agree. Then to read this article and realize that even these people can't agree struck me as humerous!!
