great talent! I was lucky enough to see some of his pieces in Paris... you don't have to be an art buff to apreciate his creations.

This is an utter delight. The essence of playfulness. We should pity anyone who is not charmed by it, for he or she must live a dull circumscribed life.

@MrSmashface Yes, you are correct. YOU do not see the genius. Don't worry. Not everyone can see genius.

I'm sorry but this isn't genius, same as picasso wasn'ta genius seen as art isn't genius, "I would like to present to you my new piece, wow you must be rather stupid to pay millions for this, I think it's a powerful statement about modern artists having no talent, thank you"

@MrSmashface where does your Picasso quote come from? I googled it exactly as you typed (cut and paste) but do not find it.

You actually googled it? Sarcasm maybe?

@MrSmashface sorry. I thought we were having a serious discussion. Your agenda is clearly something else. I'll let you reply because, it seems, you need that last word.

@MrSmashface We should be so fortunate that there are people like Picasso and Calder to siphon money from idiots who have no conception of actual talent and just throw money at whatever is promoted as "new and unique". Picasso's art was total crap, and Calder is just a child in an adult body. Jackson Pollock's work is indistinguishable from a monkey's.
