Art vs Art



I was invited to see an art show. :) Sounds nice, doesn't it?

Well.. the problem is: It's modern art. And I am certainly not a fan of modern art, unless I can see what the shape is. Or the description should match what I imagine the painting or sculpture is about.



Or the colors must be something that captures my mind. (looking at the above art, it looks like it has been done by a child. Sorry, Mr Artist.. I am just a simple person who is unable to appreciate your work).



This statue is much easier: a mother and a child..The shape is there.



A flower crushed and glued to another flower? Mmm..nice color.



A kid, a dog and the kid is picking up some flowers/stars? Mmm..ok..


A set of masks!! (smile)

It would be a waste of time to ask me to go to a modern art gallery. I wouldn't understand the pictures. It's like looking at clouds and trying to guess what the shape looks like. Unless it's a photo gallery, then I would love to see it.
A photo speaks a thousand words. :)

A rose by any other name would still smell like a rose.. (ouch..Shakespeare would be mad to hear his quote being rephrased).
