What the hell? I am so pissed off right now. It's a shame because I love the 20th century so much, but it has some very garbage movements emerge early from it. It's a shame because I am of Polish descent and my nation was reborn in that century.
Rich people stopped paying for good art and started paying for shit art instead.
why paint beauty when you can photograph beauty

Spain has been going down hill ever since the collapse of the new world colonial states. Hundreds of years of managed decline. Shouldn’t be that way though. It’s a large well placed country with decent natural resources. Spain could be a successful country again if its leaders weren’t fucking retarded.
>>18104786It's called "money laundering"
>>18104782People got bored of the same type of art and tried things totally different.

>>18104782>20th centuryPhotography killed art. People for centuries looked for the best style to illustrate reality, then photography came and suddenly all you had to do was push a button and get a more or less perfect illustration. So artists started experimenting with the medium to try and convey something different that just a picture itself. Honestly what you call "crap" is arguably the most interesting period in the entire history of art - people just going wild and trying all sorts of shit. But then again, for you Fascism is "okay" so your opinion is probably worthless anyway
