David Hockney's Fresh Flowers exhibit is at the Royal Ontario Museum until Januray 1, 2012. Xtra interviewed the famous artist about his latest work, being gay and the invading suburban culture that seems to be taking over the world.
Just because the medium is an IPad, it does not eliminate what it is.
Art is in the eye of the beholder. If someone can take three urinals without plumbing and hang them in a row, and have them praised as great art, then beautiful pictures created on an IPad is art.
Taking the written documents of those who claim it is not art and taking a shit on them is also art.
I think I'll make one of these brilliant pieces my wallpaper on my iPhone and iPad. Thank you, Mr. Hockney.
