45 Communist Goals For America: 22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms." 23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art. www.uhuh.com/nwo/communism/comgoals.htm Looks like they've already succeeded in the rest of the world [although I think the "Magic Tap" in Spain is kind of cool].

The Great 20th Century Art Scam (Art Renewal Center) I don't know a lot about art, but I'm with you....I like realism, and marvel that people can recreate it on paper or canvas. A long, long time ago, by accident, I wandered into a modern art exhibit of stripes at Darthmouth, or some such place. I don't even remember exactly which Ivy League school it was. It was so quiet and solemn in there you could hear a pin drop. A woman was sitting at a desk guarding all these "treasures" [edit: that a child or even I could have painted]. Something about the situation struck me as extremely hilarious, and it was all I could do to keep from bursting out laughing while I frantically searched for the way out of there. Once out, I couldn't refrain any more, and laughed until it hurt. Looking back, I wish I had said to her something like, the emperor wears no clothes! That's a very interesting and informative link you gave. Thank you....bookmarking it.
