Stupid New York Artists Watch

For some reason artists are attracted to New York City. Maybe it’s some supposed bohemian atmosphere. Or maybe there are just more people interested in art here than elsewhere. Or more likely they come here because they are bad artists, but people in New York are too unwilling to say so for fear of being thought uninsightful or uptight or elitist. Well, maybe I am uninsightful or elitest or both, but a lot of this crap is just that — crap.

Take, for example, the 300 lbs. of sliced ham on a bed at the left. Is that art? No, it’s just 300 lbs. of perfectly good ham gone to waste because some dithering idiot thinks it is shocking or interesting or moving or deep or makes a statement or some such drivel. But really it’s just crap, and the City is full of it — a lot of it from ‘artists’.
