It looks underwhelming because it is. It looks cheap and scrappy because it is. No amount of critical verbiage can transform this tripe from the dreary, uninteresting rubbish that it is into anything of value. You are also wrong to state that stone and bronze sculpture are not permanent. They may not be eternal, but they are in effect permanent. Thankfully, this scrap is not, and will be forgotten in a flash. A gallery and brochure, no matter how glossy, cannot make a silk purse of a sow's ear.
what is it with this pseudo intellectual art or intuitive art. It's flooding the art world, getting overwhelming attention in the academic art circles. What ever happened the beauty in art, not just based on ideas, but also aesthetics.
"He's taking pains to make his art look underwhelming" - No dear, I think that your taking pains to make it look like your not wasting your time on this rubbish.

I like the idea of lowering the standards for art.

However, excellent narration & presentation. It's not the presenter that's being criticized, it's the unremarkable artwork being put out there.

Exactly the work there is degrading art.
