@RyanDemaree Everything you listed is a fact just like Andy being an artist is a fact. We are entitled to our own opinions about something and you can not like Warhol for your own reasons. just wanted to make sure you weren't discrediting him for not being an artist when its universally known as a fact he is an artist. Just cause you think he isnt one doesn't change the fact that he is one.
@RyanDemaree Yeah you sound like one of those critics bashing Pop artists. I remember Roy Lictenstein talking about "what makes art" Art is different for different people. One person might look at a painting and see a masterpiece others might see trash. You can not like Any Warhol but he has paintings up in museums with picasso and matisse. He is recognized as an artist whether you like it or not.
@RyanDemaree then you should do it. Its only people crazy enough to do things like that are the ones that are in museums for it. Lots of people diss on art, and especially what are is not but never grow the balls to try painting and putting it out there.
@emile235 I dont care what art historians say. They are snobbish and pretentious.
There are ppl getting away with passing off their feces and sex stained beds as art...maybe if I go buy a rubber ducky at the toy store and write my name on it and write some 2000 page book on how it reflects the deepness of my childhood or I print out a picture of a pop star and piss on it and say it reflects my feelings towards pop culture ill be the next warhol or Koons!!!
Warhol doesnt reflect anything beyond the fact that he doesnt care about his creation and that he has nothing important to say.
Even when youre mirroring a problem you still distort and add in your own ideas and aesthetics...warhol merely took already made things and added whacky colors to them and repeated them
A real artist likes being able to work on their own project, rather than having a factory of gnomes do it for you

@HotPocketsBoy right.
And Mcdonalds is recognized as one of the most successful place to eat out and Justin Bieber one of the most popular musicians at the time.
Would that make Mcdonalds healthy and wholesome or Justin Bieber a deep, skilled musician?
fuck no

@HotPocketsBoy anything that doesnt look genuine to me gives art a bad name
ppl like Warhol gave modern art a huge setback
