These /beg/ tier paintings recently sold for millions of dollars and are being displayed at multiple art museums in Paris and Antwerp right now.Why aren't YOU getting in the fine art world, /ic/? Surely some of you can do better than this.
>why aren't you getting into the closed circle money laundering schemewagies can't answer this one
I have morals
>>7400043How's that working out for you?
Because I wasn't born a trust fund baby to parents with links to high society.
>yeah but these were probably made by some famous artist in the 60's and are sold for their historic va-WRONG!All of these were painted in 2021 by a 35 year old woman.>okay then it's just a money laundering scheme and she's some famous well connected painte-WRONG!She's a literal who chink who started her art journey in 2012.Meanwhile you're slaving away for 105 twitter likes on your $15 commissions while people like her are making retirement money just by playing the game right. There's nothing stopping you from doing what she did.
>>7400051>chinks don't do money laundering lollmaocanada, australia and new zealand are literally chinese money laundering: the countries (lol)
>>7400028>Why aren't YOU getting in the fine art world, /ic/? Surely some of you can do better than this.Because it's not about doing better. People like the flaws in the painting. Also there's tons of people on that journey right now, idk how many girls I've seen on OKC in NYC doing the art thing, paying for gallery spaces. It's just like slaving away on social media hoping to become famous only you spend more money. There is no Garuntee that retarded rich people will like your work let alone pay millions of dollars for it. If I went down that route I want to be like that dude who became friends with Johnny Depp his work actually looked adequate and was supported by a celebrity.
>>7400046I'm rich with integrity and self loathing.
>Lets paint...le homosexual young men
>>7400028>why aren't you a part of jewish money launderingno clue op
>>7400028I feel insulted by that my parents and grandparents worked hard to get their art in museums. I feel insulted
>>7400028It represents an embrace of the Jungian shadow self. The parts of our personality we were made to believe were so reprehensible and at odds with the person our environment requires to be that need to be hidden at all costs. The shadowself is drawn as a corpse because embracing shadowself means the death of the false personality created to hide the existence of the shadow self. Notice the androgynous nature of both characters, a symbolic reminder that in the person we present to the world there is always a germ of a lie and within our dark thoughts there is truth and redemption. The painting shows embracing the shadowself as a gentle and intimate act rather than the extential crisis we tend to think of it as. A reminder that healing from trauma is soothing as much as it is emotionally draining.
>>7400852No shit, Sherlock, we all knew that the second we saw the painting. It just looks like doodoo, lmao
>>7400028How many of these threads do (you) need? Sage and hide this faggot's bait because the jannies are even bigger faggots
>>7400852Has fine art always been about intellectual maturbation? Look here is a painting that requires no explanation outside of one phrase that completely changes the meaning and the rest of the story is told through the painting. A girl on a field looking towards her house. It's seemingly normal, oh she's just laying in a field enjoying the day. >Degenerative conditionAll of a sudden the painting becomes quite morbid as you realize that she's collapsed on the ground away from the house. From here you can mentally maturbate as much as you like, talk about the symbolism, the time period, etc. That's the difference.The painting and feelings it illicit stand by themselves and are characterstic of the time period, they aren't propped up for the sheer act of pseduointellectualism and focus on more than just the self. Your artist seems to have never matured passed the le edgy teenager everything revolves around me I'm so deep and unique phase and that will unironically prevent them from making any actually impactful art that resonates with many people. They're too focused on self.
>>7400875>Has fine art always been about intellectual maturbation?One piece of art having strong intellectual value doesn't take away from another piece of art that has strong emotional value.
>>7400947You completely missed the point but it is what it is.
>>7400974If I'm being honestly, these are both me>>7400852>>7400855I was just doing an overly intellectualized explanation of the painting as a set up to a punchline and it wasn't funny so I was turning it into a pointless debate. Sorry if I got you riled up.
>>7400028maybe they arent /beg/ anon. maybe this ranking system is for retards who still believe in being art slaves to big entertainment companies
>>7400028Are you really surprised, they paid $$$ for a banana taped to a wall. Art isn't worth anything because it's good it's worth something because some idiot will buy it, the only thing art is priced on is what it previously sold for, you could scribble on a piece of paper for a minute get a rich idiot to buy it then it's worth $100k.
>>7400852It's Saul Goodman kissing a chink
>>7405274>you could scribble on a piece of paper for a minute get a rich idiot to buy it then it's worth $100konly if the entire critic / curator / dealer / gallery system had your back, otherwise no chance
>>7400028>>7400029>>7400031>>7400033>>7400034>>7400038these aren't very good paintings
>>7400051She's obviously a Western asset pushed to destabilize the CCP, they're just following the Cold War playbook again with the artistic vanguard thing. I imagine she's also a lesbian who's deebly goncerned about the state of LGBTQ rights in China and how the country should open up to foreign influences.
>>7400028I really, really don't want to get involved in sucking dicks nor money laundering.
