The only real art is a roomfull of grannies sewing quilts. Conceptual Art is just pretentious bullshit.

Pretty!

Umm, isn't "The End to Modernity" hanging in the Six Arms at Melrose and Pike? 1st chandelier to yer left...

Those mega-shag rug rule!

Re: Josiah's piece. Yeah, that's the point. It references a modernist chandelier, but it's actually a scientific model of the beginning of the universe.
