Some crazy guy sits in a room and puts clay on his face and calls it art - General

[QUOTE=darius_bielecki;25891728] All I'm asking for is your definition on art.[/QUOTE] is this the part where I say "You can't define art" and you reply "EXACTLY THIS IS ART, EVERYTHING IS ART THIS IS AMAZING I GOT U"

[QUOTE=HAKKAR!!!;25891644]Being batshit insane, I mean I do agree. I wonder why the fuck he would do this and what he's trying to convey but I'd hardly call it art[/QUOTE] :downs:

[QUOTE=Anthophobian;25891805]:downs:[/QUOTE] :downs: look I can do it too

that was fucking horrifying

[img]http://75.101.147.23/image.php?u=64750&dateline=1280678121[/img] My face the whole way through. Best video all week.

I have to agree with HAKKAR. This is like [media][img]http://scienceblogs.com/cognitivedaily/upload/2007/06/art1.jpg[/img][/media] [i]It's art guys![/i] It was a random dude smearing all kinds of shit on his face while making weird mumbling sounds.

[QUOTE=darius_bielecki;25891053]Well obviously the man had some kind of view supporting his actions. As stated above maybe it is some kind of metaphor, maybe it symbolises something. Don’t you think that art is something that in depth is something more?[/QUOTE] Performance art is and always will be stupid.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ljqvg7xaxc&NR=1[/media] Another guy doing it. [quote]the best thing to do is to start the video and once about 10 seconds go by, just SKIP* right to about 7:30.... it's great cause you're all the sudden like.... uhh how the HELL did this happen?[/quote]

Does any of you remember that video where two naked woman and a naked man danced to some old song? Can't find it right now, but it was weird as shit. Her tits were flaunting wildly because of how she jumped around. [editline]6th November 2010[/editline] Okay I am serious when I say he can't be all normal in his head. That is fucked up.

[QUOTE=HAKKAR!!!;25891770]is this the part where I say "You can't define art" and you reply "EXACTLY THIS IS ART, EVERYTHING IS ART THIS IS AMAZING I GOT U"[/QUOTE] Lets look back a bit. [QUOTE=darius_bielecki;25890907](Don’t mistake this comment for me arguing that this is art.)[/QUOTE] I find it stupid and a bit of a waste of time. . I also get a sense you’re getting very personal which is making you appear to be very childish. I’m just trying to have a conversation with you. Overall don’t claim something is not artist when you’re not even sure of yourself what art is and if you care.

oh my god that's terrifying

So I titled it as so and you started telling me to stop claiming it's not art, you're the one getting all defensive.

Uhh, Darius, you're the one getting defensive, HAKKAR said he didn't consider it as art, then you went on getting all pissed about it and told us how wrong we were.

It’s difficult to understand the real tone someone is in through comments, I didn’t mean to sound angry at all. And I apologise if I got the wrong impression of your tone also.

It's an ABOMINATION. BURN HIM!

I translated the name for the second video someone posted towards the bottom of page 1, it's apparently French and means "Sagazan (the guy's name, I'm assuming) the Abode of Chaos"? Maybe it's supposed to look insane. I don't know.

[QUOTE=Dj-J3;25890863]Reminds me of this. [media]http://i52.tinypic.com/2e64swg.png[/media][/QUOTE] oh fuck that scared me.

why not

That was pretty cool. Dunno why people get so worked up about modern art/performance art. This actually LOOKED cool, and was kind of creepy/eerie. It's more art than spaghetti-in-the-pants-girl was.

I want to do this for next halloween think of the creepiness. it'd be like silent hill only in real life

I can't be the only person who found this cool.

[QUOTE=darius_bielecki;25891259]You’re not really making an argument there. All I’m trying to say is that you could give the common courtesy to the creator to look into his work before you make such snobbish comments. Too often in Facepunch do I see people dismissing unconventional things because they’re weird, however people don’t even hesitate to brand something as art just because its pretty.[/QUOTE] Art is something that stirs your heart and instills emotions... What he's doing makes me think of a "cthulhu" kind of mood. Guess it's art? Or he just looks like a crazy fucker.

That was awesome!

Oh hey, theres more [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzlLaq2_2GY[/media]

I hope he tips his dry cleaners well.

[QUOTE=SoaringScout;25891226]Art is easy to make now. I can just throw my speakers on the ground, take a shit on them, and call it art.[/QUOTE] I remember my Technical Drawing teacher told me once he was in a modern art museum and he threw a half-eaten sandwich to the floor on purpose. After a few time, people started taking photos of that sandwich as it were part of the exposition.

[QUOTE=Symmetry;25893183]I can't be the only person who found this cool.[/QUOTE] No you weren't, but maybe you didn't read my post.

He should look into becoming a creature-designer for LucasArts or some shit like that. I was genuinely scared.
