    Uhm epSCUSE me, it is actually Very Important to have Good Art as it can only be produced and appreciated by superior* (*western, male) beings such as myself, see below for an important example

      That is legit a great sculpture too. Cloth is extremely difficult to sculpt.

        It’s technically very impressive, and the artist is obviously very skilled, but I don’t think it’s good in terms of being interesting art

          Anyone know who the artist is? I’m curious what else she’s done.

          I can see where you’re coming from. How everything is flowing, the fabric and the hair, is interesting to me though. But I’m biased, I used to sculpt. So maybe the skill on display is all I need. I wonder if she’s done anything that might be more interesting in a different way.

              Yeah looks like you’re right.
              She found her niche, that’s for sure. All “woman in flowing lace in bronze”. Which is cool. I always wanted to do a bronze sculpture. I have no talent compared to Luo Li Rong though.

              This one is cool. What do you think?

                About the same as the other one. There’s no doubt she’s good as hell at what she does, but it isn’t really for me. Probably id appreciate it on a technical level more if I had the experience you have

                  There’s an artist I have to show you guys. Idk if anyone will like his stuff, but it’s definitely interesting. I can’t think of his name right now, but I’ll try to tag you when I do.

              That’s a perfectly reasonable opinion but realism as a movement is defined by which part of reality the artist chooses to depict and that’s where the artistic expression comes in.

              realism is in art history the begining of the modern art movement and rejected traditional ideas about what could be depicted in art.

                There is basically nothing interesting in terms of content about this, it’s just horny with bordering-on-cartoonish anatomy and good cloth and hair. It doesn’t express anything except objectification laundered through technical ability and detail.

      It sucks that perspective, color theory, light logic, and anatomy don’t exist anymore. I wish it took even less than a single google search to find art tutorials, artists with open commissions, and professional artists posting their work on instagram. This is coming from the same jokesters who deride people for studying art for their occupation. This is a funny one because it doesn’t even feel like they’re saying poor or queer people shouldn’t exist, this is just them being uninformed hypocrites straight up.

      Edit: Noticing that Fun with a Pencil (Pain with a Pencil), came out in 1939. Loomis’ work has been wildly influential on how people do figure drawing/portrait drawing but somehow standards were decreasing and continued to decrease despite his influence in the realm of “art”

        The ironic thing is that since the fountain exists to question what counts as art, any critique of it that frames it as bad art has already conceded that Duchamp is right.

    makes you feel weird

    Waaah, all art must exist as shallow, uplifting slop!

    mocks the concept of values

    How dare an artist endeavour to make something that questions my values!

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
