Some of what can pass for art today is simply unbelievable.
The more bizarre, the greater the publicity and attention.
I do not want to add anything more to what this writer in the Guardian says. Had I written the piece, I would not have been as gentle with the artist.
I guess it qualifies as art, unless your definition of art is very restrictive. My only problem with it is that it’s not very interesting. The central idea is amusing for about two seconds and then what? There’s nothing more to say about it.

I agree Kylie.
I have to agree with your dismissive critique of the particular display of this fellow human being’s perceived interpretation of an artistic presentation. Given the choice between this individual’s artistic abilities and that famous elephants artistic ability… I’ll go with the elephant! 🙂

The exact word for it. Disgusting indeed.
Whatever. It doesn’t look like fun to me so I’ll skip it. Why do people react?

Reaction is inbuilt in nature! You can’t have action without reaction and vice versa.
