OK my serious opinion on ART.

Art is the way each of us approaches life. Trying to shock the public consciousness counts but its less important IMHO than say Sycamores personal photography, my post and beam house, fieldstone fireplace or mandolin plinking. Artistic living improves us and that is what we need to share with one another, rather than an expression of cynicism housed in a white room somewhere. That also dips partially into why I oppose publicly financed art, we don't require an artistic elite whose message is filtered through whatever politics are in charge. If you like an artist or gallery support it, you'll get a more diverse less filtered product.
