A 17-year-old placed a pair of glasses on the floor in a modern art museum. Visitors stopped and took pictures, because they thought it was an exhibit. Ana Kasparian, Francis Maxwell, and Grace Baldridge, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Several visitors to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art this week were fooled into thinking a pair of glasses set on the floor by a 17-year-old prankster was a postmodern masterpiece.
“Upon first arrival we were quite impressed with the artwork and paintings presented in the huge facility,” TJ Khayatan told BuzzFeed. “However, some of the ‘art’ wasn’t very surprising to some of us.”
“We stumbled upon a stuffed animal on a gray blanket and questioned if this was really impressive to some of the nearby people.”
To test out the theory that people will stare at, and try and artistically interpret, anything if it’s in a gallery setting, Khayatan set a pair of glasses down and walked away.”
