what is art to you???


january 14th, we went to MOMA for our 1st studio class to see Martin Puryear and to basically to start a new year and new semester with lots of inspiration and new ideas. well, i think we all had some different ideas about what we saw at the museum. I think I saw a lot of cool stuff and didn't want to leave when the museum was closing. it's such a shame that I'm living here in new york and rarely find myself really taking advantage of it.

we all went back to the studio to have an discussion about what we thought about the works. so here's konstantin's sketch we thought it'd generate a good discussion. (konstantin's not registered yet so i'm posting this for him.)

"my overall impression on this museum visit physically made me sick. my question is: what is this world coming to? our new generation is exposed to degenerate exhibitions loaded with psychedelic mind altering understanding of art and beauty: though i appreciate martin puryear's craft (carpentry) it doesn't change my mind about the art thats being displayed: the only thing i enjoy about moma is the architecture of the building: and the sylliuetes of people that fill the space. MY QUESTION IS: WHAT WILL ART BE LIKE IN 20 YEARS FROM TODAY???

MOMA, 2008"
