Right, because art is only art if it's an oil painting, and it's of something specific, and it looks exactly like the thing it's supposed to be. Art isn't supposed to make you think. Art isn't to make you feel a certain way. Any so-called "artist" who manages to arouse a reaction in a person's mind in a non-traditional manner should be refered to by their real name: a terrorist. They need to go back to art school and learn how to paint pictures of bowls of fruit that look just like real bowls of fruit. Because that has real value.
