Modern Art


Modern (F)Art is the perfect reflection of the modern psychology. A chaotic, jumbled, mess, hinting at a concept it cannot calcify.

A form of self-expression even a child can perform, or an animal, implying equalization, by using perspectivism to justify the idea that the simple can be considered complex, and the ugly can be beautiful. No symmetry, no order, no clarity, which is what beauty is, only the siblings and blotches of a mind gone insane, trying to detach form reality, lacking talent, aesthetic appreciation, mastery, but pretentious and deluded enough to think it deserves to be heard and seen. The wish to be noticed is part of the herd psychology.

( Jamal working on his next masterpiece )


The majority of modern (f)art is the epitome of democratic idealism: the idea(l) that inferior/superior do not exist, and that if you find a dealer, an agent, clever enough to sell, to make you marketable, your "quality" is proven: being sold to the many, popularity, being the modern leveling of what we know as quality.

Thus,

Britney Spears = Beethoven.....( why not? She's accomplished and famous and rich and popular and so she must be smart and valuable and timelessly worthy of mention )

Tupac = Shakespeare......( http://www.examiner.com/article/rapper-tupac-shakur-is-re-discovered-as-a-modern-day-shakespeare )

Snoop Dog = Wagner.......( dis Wagner guy is a racist cracker. He ain't no pimp, and he got no game. Ain't no match for the big Dog. Word homie !! - Jamal )

The feminization and the decline in masculine energy can be witnessed in western culture in the state of its art-forms. Everything from sculpting, music, movies, poetry is degenerating into hedonistic, primal beats, continuous talk of love, hyper-masculine displays or it has settled upon an endless recycling of previous creativity.

Listen to modern pop-music with its shallow, sexual, themes and recycled beats. Recently I heard Beyonce, in an interview, refer to her music as "art", and to herself as an artist...I almost gagged. A dumb negro woman, who is more of a performer than an artist, becoming famous because her image sells, to ugly girls who dream of being more.

Isn't it funny how the present quality of art (particularly in music) and its simplicity or its connection to more primal energies (everything is about sex now) has managed to include more females into these disciplines?

A debate on modern art. http://www.debate.org/opinions/is-modern-art-real-art. Notice the turd arguing that Anything can be art?

Yes, I think it's worthless. Recently I saw some modern art that was literally just a ripped open boxes for beer on top of a pedestal. It's totally useless.

[Taiga Lake]

Because it's Jewshit.

[rhiannon]

It is clearly overrated.

[portusaus]

Yes, most is not deserving of the title 'art'.

[Jackson]

Absolute rubbish for the most part. It's just a typical liberal/leftie zombie art-style that is as much about politics and social ethics than anything else. It doesn't bring me any enjoyment, satisfaction or entertainment and is supported by ideas that i by and large disagree with, so no. Just a bunch of freeloaders wanting to get rich for doing f all.

[arcticwolf]

It's ugly as hell, and it makes no sense, looks like a product of a drunk/stoned or disturbed mind. Weird stuff.

[Graham]

It's about as meaningful as credit and rep. The art itself comes second.

[Svipdag]

In a single word Modern "Art" is PHONY ! I've seen some of Jackson ("Jack the Dripper") Pollock"s drawings and it becomes obvious immediately why he turned to dripping DUCO enamel out of cans onto cardboard while standing on a stepladder. HE COULD NOT DRAW.
I've listened to modern "artists" spouting "artspeak" and realised that these people are poseurs, talentless dilettantes. (What would YOU make of ".....the gestural aspect of brushtrokes engaged in a plastic dance" ?) Not only is their "art" meaningless, so is their discussion of it.

There are still plenty of artists producing fine art. The galleries don't want to show it and the "sophisticates" [a.k.a. pseudo-intellectuals] won't buy it.

So, what do I know about it ? I have been an artist, albeit, only a serious amateur. I painted for my own satisfaction , but, to my surprise, and sometimes dismay, sold a few paintings in spite of myself. [I use the past tense because peripheral neuropathy has made it extremely difficult for me to paint.]

Despite the fall in the level of education and archaization of the humanity (cult of violence and moral turpitude), still remain some real artists:

http://youtu.be/rx0QtAsNq6M
Unfortunately, preference is given to such artists:

No. The only possible contemporary way for the art is the gag, the punch line. The work of art has to be unique, there is not art without unique distinctiveness! The substance does not count the curio yes, than the difference between the coal and the diamond.

This was art, when the peoples did not can to draw:
http://yalepress.yale.edu/images/interior13/9780300111477/203.jpg

But after a century later, already only because of the artist's name. Since the knowledge of the natural depiction was average.

500AD-1200 - decorative art, or barbarian art (fear of empty space (http://klimtlover.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/chi-rho-iota.jpeg))
1200-1500 - the art of the nature's depiction (fight for the tools of the depiction (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/22/Da_Vinci_Vitruve_Luc_Viatour.jpg))
1500-1800 - the art of the soul's depiction (fight for the depiction of the emotions (http://www.the-art-minute.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Bernini-Theresa2.jpg), the beginning of the depiction of things beyond the reality)
1800-1950 - the art of the reality's depiction (fight for the depiction of the essence of the visible reality (http://uploads2.wikipaintings.org/images/claude-monet/rouen-cathedral-the-portal-in-the-sun.jpg))
since 1950 - the conservation of the opportunity of the art (fight for the survival of the art, anything is art what is unique)

They push degenerate art, cinema, music, literature, history including taking piece's from our culture and then flipping it up side down (think Snow White remake of Mirror Mirror, maybe that's not the best example but whatever). It's part of the bigger game plan of destroying our culture and ultimately destroying our people. Look for Frankfort school quotes. I'll find them if you acutely* care.

Frankfurt School

To further the advance of their ‘quiet’ cultural revolution - but giving us no ideas about their plans for the future - the School recommended (among other things):

1. The creation of racism offenses.
2. Continual change to create confusion
3. The teaching of sex and homosexuality to children
4. The undermining of schools’ and teachers’ authority
5. Huge immigration to destroy identity.
6. The promotion of excessive drinking
7. Emptying of churches
8. An unreliable legal system with bias against victims of crime
9. Dependency on the state or state benefits
10. Control and dumbing down of media
11. Encouraging the breakdown of the family

One of the main ideas of the Frankfurt School was to exploit Freud’s idea of ‘pansexualism’ - the search for pleasure, the exploitation of the differences between the sexes, the overthrowing of traditional relationships between men and women. To further their aims they would:

• attack the authority of the father, deny the specific roles of father and mother, and wrest away from families their rights as primary educators of their children.
• abolish differences in the education of boys and girls
• abolish all forms of male dominance - hence the presence of women in the armed forces
• declare women to be an ‘oppressed class’ and men as ‘oppressors’

Munzenberg summed up the Frankfurt School’s long-term operation thus: ‘We will make the West so corrupt that it stinks.'

The School believed there were two types of revolution: (a) political and (b) cultural. Cultural revolution demolishes from within. ‘Modern forms of subjection are marked by mildness’. They saw it as a long-term project and kept their sights clearly focused on the family, education, media, sex and popular culture.

The FRANKFURT SCHOOL: Cultural Revolution
...one can identify two types of Revolution.
First, there is political revolution: the gaining of power through violence and the use of terror. ...1917 in Russia provide a good illustration of this type. Second, there is cultural revolution in which one demolishes from within the basis of civilization in the country one wants to conquer–its culture, way of life, beliefs, morality, scale of values, etc. It is a long-term action undertaken without visible violence by applying the formula: "Modern forms of subjection are marked by mildness."

I like some modern art. Sometimes when a painting looks like it's far from reality, a whole new level of creativity was required. It's one thing to paint what you can see, and another to paint what you feel.

That being said, a lot of art nowadays looks like the artist was just lazy and apathetic.

In reply to Fufuangeli

The second movement of Beethoven's 7th Symphony is, arguably, the strangest thing he ever wrote. it is about 50 years ahead of its time.
I can't help wondering "What could the audiences of his time make of it ?" I have always considered [also arguably] the 7th as Beethoven's greatest symphony, despite strong competition from the others.

[Svipdag]

Abstract expressionism is one school of modern art and I don't care for most paintings in this genre. However, I saw one abstract axpressionist painting by Jim Grabowski which amazed and delighted me. It SUGGESTS strongly a sailing ship in a storm, yet there is nothing in it which actually DEPICTS a s ship. It is a remarkable painting, now in a private collection, which revealed to me a previously unrecognised potentiality of abstract art. Unfortunately, it seems to be unique.,

I LOVE modern art, I hate contemporary art. Modern art ended in the 1960's or thereabouts and included some of the greatest artists of our time.

Depends on what kinda "modern art" you know? A lot of it is shit but I like some Geometric Abstraction and dabble in it myself. The idea of there being no inferior art (that is very common now) is fucking stupid really. There is no way to know something is good if you think splotches are cool. Something can be odd and cool though. This is why I LOVE GEOMETRIC abstraction. :o

Ha. "Modern Art" is pretty diverse. Drop the ideology- even Goya was the beginning of Modern Art. Art doesn't need to be a "picture that is pretty to look at" nor does any attempt to ape the style of Pollack and Picasso qualify as art.

I like Art Deco, is that considered modern art?

[Scholarios]

I like Art Deco, is that considered modern art?

The rule is if fascists liked it, it's not modern art (no matter how revisionist it is). If commies liked it, or Jews were involved in it in any way, then it is "Modern Art".

I like Art Deco, is that considered modern art?

The Art Deco was the most important flow of the modernism! For example the short story of the modern style in the architecture:

early modern 1920-1940
- international: art deco (the classic version)
- provincial (cheap version): tropical deco, bauhaus

mature modern 1940-1950
- international: late art deco (the less decorated version and a part of the italian fascist architecture), mature modern (early international style, or decorated bauhaus and and a part of the italian fascist architecture)
- provincial: neoeclecticism (nazi architecture, a part of the soviet architecture), colonial art deco

late modern 1950-1980
- international: late modern (or international style)
- provincial: unpretentious mass architecture alround the world

postmodern 1980-
- international: postmodern
- provincial: neotraditionalist styles, neoeclectic styles

Tupac = Shakespeare......( http://www.examiner.com/article/rapper-tupac-shakur-is-re-discovered-as-a-modern-day-shakespeare )



This following poem by Tupac is being compared to Shakespeare in that article....


Did u hear about the rose that grew from a crack
in the concrete
proving nature’s laws wrong it learned to walk
without having feet
funny but it seems but by keepings its dreams
it learned 2 breathe fresh air
long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else even cared!

White art reflects our aristocratic nature. Beauty, Honor, Strength and just plain awesomeness. That crap is the opposite. They push degenerate art, cinema, music, literature, history including taking piece's from our culture and then flipping it up side down (think Snow White remake of Mirror Mirror, maybe that's not the best example but whatever). It's part of the bigger game plan of destroying our culture and ultimately destroying our people. Look for Frankfort school quotes. I'll find them if you acutely* care.

*actually

'White' art. ROFL the masses of 'white' people were never aristocratic and noble but lived as feudal slaves in their own shit for the amusement of a tiny minority of aristocrats.

Modern art is too sophisticated, too ungraspable for narrow-minded philistines going beyond their power of imagination.
In the conservative backward mind of a proletarian philistine, everything what is considered postmodern, avant garde art breaking contemporary social norms, is degenerative, simple, pseudo-art. It is the shock moment. In fact the proletarian philistine is unwittingly not against the artwork by itself but against the higher bourgeois sophisticated socio-cultural and socio-economic milieus(post-materialism) which support postmodern art. What is considered contemporary as 'art' is what the upper class fancies the most as in the tale of 'The Emperor's New Clothes'. Have you ever seen a proletarian on a vernissage sipping on a champagne cocktail? It is the dislike, the disdain of an uptight proletarian Philistine. However only the artist himself and a few naturally creative minds can really enjoy the 'depths' of this kind of 'art'. Most bourgeois snobs don't like modern art because of the art itself but because it represents status and prestige. You could hence sell them an huge pile of shit as somekind of innovative 'art' and they would pay millions for it.

But then isn't modern art being used as a manipulative cultural warfare?

"Masterpieces" of modern art fetched over 200 million£ in an auction last week at Christie's in King Street, London.

Among the stand-out lots was Francis Bacon's "Three Studies For A Portrait Of John Edwards", which dates from 1984 and was valued at $80 million (£47m).

Last year, another "masterpiece" 'Three Studies Of Lucian Freud' was sold for a record 90million£

I dislike all art that doesn't have any meaning. Visual and audial. From swirls on a canvas and Katy perry to a high quality portrait of a rich old lady and her cockapoo and my uncle's symphonies written solely to play on the nostalgia of the rich old money of Hispanic(Americas and Europe)elite. My point is classical technique alone does not make great art.
