I actually do like some minimalist works, and so I looked carefully at this and began to see the faint outlines of a landscape... and then I scrolled down a bit and it all moved and I realised it was muck on my laptop screen. Sooo disappointed! No, I don't get it.

If I ever meet the person that pays money for this, I'll slap the shit out of 'em.

If you do a chalk & charcoal filter on it in photoshop, it's pretty clearly a still-life of a mickey-mouse doll (seriously).

If you put a douche-bag filter on it, you get this...

Or Warhol.
To quote from an episode of "The Flintstones", "I don't know what the artist got for this, but he should'a got life.".

It reminds me of a beige excel spreadsheet, which in turn makes me think of work, which makes me depressed. This "art" sucks.

I can't imagine why not much of this guys work survives. I can just see someone boxing up all his stuff, going "All this canvas, you think he would have painted something on here, eah?" Then chucking it out.

I may have seen one of this artist's works at MOMA when I was about 10. I remember a wall-sized work, with pencil lines on the wall in three different directions creating a grid pattern.
I remember thinking that it was bullshit. But you know, age 10, you're not going to be able to appreciate art like that. |

And at age 10, you're liable to get an honest impression rather than being brainwashed by the "initiated".
