Well, then again, after the banana news broke I taped a leek to a cupboard and the whole family had a good mood for two days, like “oh no, burglars are gonna raid our home now that we have this expensive piece of art”. I can appreciate a well crafted painting for its handywork, but it usually would not make me laugh.
I went to the London MOMA like 15 years ago in the middle of winter. There was this room with an exhibit, which just was a big chair and a big table (like you could walk under the chair and the table was higher than your usual ceiling). The whole room was bigger in volume than any flat I ever had, and heated so that you wouldn’t need a jacket. And I don’t know what the artist meant by it, but to this day it is an example to me that our society, which spends resources on THAT, could easily solve any other problem, but just collectively decides not to. And again, it is not very complicated to build a big table and chair, but I don’t remember any painting 15 years after seeing it in a museum ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
