I think that the banana on the wall has caused irreparable harm to discussions of modern art and its merit as an art form because everytime someone brings up what they like about modern art, the anti-modern art crowd point to that fucking banana and use it to say that it is a low effort worthless style of art
But we're still talking about it.
So doesn't that prove that it's good art?
It is good art, I am not saying it’s bad art because bad art doesn’t exist. It’s actually amazing art because if what it tells us about ourselves and how we discuss it. What I am saying is I dislike the role it plays in the discourse surrounding modern art. I think it is actually a good piece with meaning but I feel like the meaning is lost on people who view it as just another part of the modern art movement
