I feel obliged to defend this, but at the same time, I just get the same feeling that it'd just be a bit sadI think I'll plump for the latter

It's really indefensible. Any art whose value lies only in its explanation, not its execution is good marketing, not good art. :)

this is how most modern are justifiys itselfby coming up with some convaluted 86 page theses on the artists innner being.
and when people say, but it's a fucking tent/shed/bed/lump of horse turd that they could have done the reply comes 'yes, but you didn't'
to wit the reply is because it wasn't worth the effort as it's a piece of horse shit with little or no worth above it's original retail value.

while trying to keep this civil, and not going off on one...I'd agree with that to an extent - there is a lot of art that requires the explanation which isn't at all evident in the work - but as with most "high culture"
- for want of a much better term like literature, or theatre, or film etc. - art which is really worth while lies within a discourse which may be exclusive to the artist, or
to a collective, or movement etc which needs a level of understanding to appreciate the themes, motives etc. And, contextually - in the
history of art - some things seem strange now, - like 3 blank canvases - but made perfect sense at the time, like when you see really shit, over the top acting
in old films; it wasn't considered shit, or over the top at the time, it made perfect contextual sense at the time. We're just looking at it from a completely different viewpoint.
Anyway, that's my piece, :)
