Yeah... I'm an artist and most "art" is pure crap, inspired by some neo-modernist art teacher insisting that "vision" is the only thing that matters and fuck skills and execution.

I've had similar experiences, including the "genius" of a bale of hay, several pesticide containers and some animal bones wrapped together with barbed wire, sitting on the floor next to a beat up gasoline container.

Oh yeah, and you can take it home for $8,000...
