It's an art joke. You wouldn't understand.

Real Explanation:
A comic after talking to my boyfriend how to get famous in the art world after you win the lottery.

The worst part is the bullshit I made up in the second to last panel is an excuse a lot of arteests use to explain their crappy work. Also it's a great way to get an "A" on your art history paper. Pro tip: Use the word "Existential" a lot.

That's the sort of logic which has turned "modern art" into such a negative phrase. People nailing a cucumber to a wall and calling it social commentary.

While I'll admit that bullshitting explanations is part of the required learning in my college art classes, there's a line you shouldn't cross.

Well, obviously. The art history professors at UO are proof that there is indeed bullshit and are smart enough to push through it. In your basic 101 classes, though, stuff like this is easy to slide by because its assumed you don't know better.

I got my essays kicked to holy crap doing them last minute, and I deserved them when I got them. Most of my papers were as genuine as I could manage, though, but I just couldn't think beyond what I saw from time to time. I'd like to think that I wrote something of worth as I do have an Bachelor's of Art in Art History degree in my room ;)

Please don't get me wrong, there's a lot of great modern and contemporary artists out there, but they are few and far between the bullshitters.
