If one duct tapes a banana to a board, and someone eats this piece of modern art, costing more than we earn in a few years, has one destroyed “art”? It could be argued that the act of eating the banana actually improved things, and putting the peel back after consumption, made the art work, so-called, a little better. Maybe it would be rated at 0.01 out of 10 now.
It has long been lamented that modernist art is little more than a deconstruction of the great art of Western civilisation. The decadence has been going on since the early part of the 20th century, and is just part of the general decline of the West. Put it like this: I have no artistic talent at all, but I could produce modern art as good as this. Therefore, modern art is absolute trash.
