Despite the irony, it's still not art, nor are you an artist for
painting it, despite your art school degree. I guess the problem
you run into is art is entirely subjective in the post-studio
age, what isn't art to you can be art to another and despite
whatever pent up feelings you may have, they're completely
negated by the other party. So it's a bit comical when you try
to make blanket false fact statements like that.  The piece she
talks about for the bloodline I was not available for but I did
see it later, the work is actually art because there's actual
concepts behind the work, unfortunately for the masses, they
hear these mediums being used and the first reaction is "ew,
icky, grossness" and so on.  The removal of the blood image is
probably a good joke though, you can show chainsaw massacres in
game, car accidents in photo threads and other accidents but not
a cup of blood. Gotta laugh at how backwards that is. read more
You have your own opinion and that's totally cool and should be
