Trash at White Cube

Carroll Dunham - In Red Space No 4 (2006)Coxsoft Art doesn't usually bother with exhibitions at White Cube, a London gallery which caters for mindless philistines who feel the need to be stimulated into discussing something they know nothing about: art. On Friday it opened its latest exhibition of tasteless trash: Carroll Dunham: In Red Space at Hoxton Square until 9 December. Carroll Dunham - a bloke, by the way - is an example of the Yankee Anti Art Movement. He seems obsessed with genitals (note pairs of round thingies). My only reason for showing you this tripe is to offer you a comparison with the excellent pixel landscape below by a talented graphic artist. Point taken?

Who is Obsessed???
Looks like a cartoon arm, hand and fingers holding a piece of paper to me!

You should read the Art Daily account of this guy's art. I decided I didn't want to inflict it on my readers, but just for you: http://www.artdaily.com

Arrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh!
OK you're excused.
There seems to be a correlation here??
The more visually polluting the "art", the more polluted the description!!

You got it in one! The worse the Anti Art, the more some idiot needs to use big words to blind us into believing that trash is art. It's salesmanship! The question to ask is: Would you buy a second-hand car from this man? Or woman. Personally, I wouldn't buy a second-hand bicycle from this one.
