ok but who ever said that ALL art is postmodernism or that all artists now
must practice this? yes, it did reject tradition and the "single serving
artist" but who ever said that every "artist" must be this way. im not
trying to defend or object to any argument, i just dont believe that there
is one clasification that an artist must fall into. i personally dont
believe i am an artist but that doesnt mean that i am any less or more than
a person who does. by saying that art is a farce and artists are fake is
kind of being a bit of an elitist youreself. its not good to overrate
anything, but undermining is just as bad. if their is a person out there who
does believe that they are an artist and that they are expressing themselves
thru it, then who the hell am i or anyone else to tell them they are wrong.
i might not like it but, again, it doesnt mean i am any better than them.
