As someone who grew up in an artist family I see the hardwork and techniques used and really like to talk to whoever created the painting etc. When I see hipster rubbish like two squares with a line down the side and people consider that art they can go Fuck off.
-I googled my local art gallery and holy shit one of the exhibitions seriously has something that is almost just two squares with a line down the middle.
The Subject in the Land
The artworks in this exhibition, from the 1970s to today, exemplify how individuals have inflected history, especially its genres of documentation and visual record. We might also describe the period from which they come as being ‘after-McCahon’, in reference to one of New Zealand’s foremost painters whose practice reconceived the genre of landscape painting in this country to incorporate a powerfully individual message.
Wow! What a load of shit.
