Indiana man drives off road, crashes into art sculpture. - Polidicks

it is art but it is shit art IMO

[QUOTE=daijitsu;41063159]4 posts in and we've got our "I could shit on a canvas and sell it as art" post considering making this kind of literal shitpost a bannable snipe[/QUOTE] I agree. Definition of art from Google: "The [B]expression or application of human creative skill and imagination[/B], typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power" The sculpture [I][B]is[/B][/I] art. That is a fact. Whether it's good or bad art is up for debate. When I read shitty posts like the one you mentioned I'm constantly wondering if it's intentional.

Well, now it's interactive art isn't it? The artist is having the last laugh as his true purpose is revealed to all!

[QUOTE=Swebonny;41063217]When I read shitty posts like the one you mentioned that I'm constantly wondering if it's intentional.[/QUOTE] the post makes you contemplate its very existence is or is it not 'it' meta and erego, is the ban not art? It evokes emotion from the unwilling participant, to bring about thought and explanation to that which was not there before, it forces creation, life and vigor

Looks like he made it better to me.

I made art. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/vtxZQ6A.png[/IMG] It's a depiction of hoodoo456

[QUOTE=Van-man;41063888]Maybe the post calling the art exhibited in question for shit [I]IS[/I] art in itself?[/QUOTE] that is the same as the statement in which I was replying to you art thief

This is art: [img_thumb]http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/vinci/joconde/joconde.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/66/VanGogh-starry_night_ballance1.jpg[/img_thumb] Not only can i give you a description of what the art is, but you can get an interpretation of it. This, is [I]not[/I] art: [img]http://i.imgur.com/6YJWj3D.jpg[/img] It a hunk of metal that you get called stupid for not understanding, just so people can look smart. Art requires effort. Just because it's open for interpretation, doesn't mean it's nothing [I]but[/I] interpretation.

Holy shit that is a dumb post

[QUOTE=megafat;41063925]This is art: -duur im dumb- Not only can i give you a description of what the art is, but you can get an interpretation of it.

it looks more artistic after the crash :v:

[QUOTE=Maul Cop;41063956]hurr durr, your a neckbeard for having an opinion[/QUOTE] See how easy it is to tell a shit joke. If you're going to make fun of me, spend the extra 3 seconds to put [I]effort[/I] to make it funny or interesting. Either way, I'd be pissed that a drunk driver destroyed property that probably cost a lot of money.

[QUOTE=Swebonny;41062956]Uh sorry, but my opinions are facts.[/QUOTE] you have yourself confused with me

[QUOTE=FoneJack;41062732][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/6YJWj3D.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] That looks like a Czech hedgehog for one of them WW2 German superheavy tanks.

I wonder if Indiana man is friends with Florida man

hurrhurr art sucks guys am i right jesus, get over yourselves

[QUOTE=FoneJack;41064134]You really thing welding all of that together didn't require any effort? and it still fits the definition of art, whether you like it or not.[/QUOTE] It required more time than effort. And did that hunk of metal really require imagination? It doesn't look a whole lot different after the car hit it. [QUOTE=nnoah95;41064197]hurrhurr art sucks guys am i right jesus, get over yourselves[/QUOTE] I'm trying to have an intelligent conversation about art. You aren't helping.

God you guys are stupid, it's a sailboat.

My contribution to the abstract art squabble: This is one of my favorite pieces of art. [IMG]http://www.davidsoncollegeartgalleries.org/newsite/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/shapiro.jpg[/IMG] It's one of my favorite pieces of art because I walked into a bench I didn't see because I was trying to figure out what the hell it was.

Everything sucks here in Indiana, don't come here

[QUOTE=FoneJack;41063729]Here's another recent photo, for anyone interested [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/aOGy1TU.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] Huh, to be honest I can't really tell the difference, all this modern art really confuses me.

looks like something out of Gmod
