Gregory K H Bryant on a Modern Art Prize Winner

When I first posted this piece on bad art that won a big current prize, my friend Gregory K. H. Bryant a great artist and brilliant thinker, added his comment.

What’s most annoying to me about all of this is that work of this sort has been around for over a century now.

There is nothing challenging, cutting edge or avant garde about any of it.

From the the absurdism of the Dadaists to Claes Oldenberg’s soft sculptures, and Jean Tinguely’s self-destructive pieces – among countless others who did it much better – these artists are simply regurgitating well trodden grounds that anyone with a first year college course in art history should be embarrased to repeat for being so obviously, naively and slavishly imitative.
