Deuce 1 #1 October 29, 2003 Is this art? Does this art bring to mind sex? It's a work that's being displayed somewhere in Britain, and it's title is "Sex". Edited to include caption: QuoteA Turner Prize-nominated work by British artists Jake and Dinos Chapman entitled 'Sex' is seen at the Tate Britain gallery in London, October 28, 2003. The winner of the $34,000 annual prize will be announced on December 7. (Peter MacDiarmid/Reuters) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Casch 0 #3 October 29, 2003 It looks pretty cool, but it most certainly does not bring Sex to my mind. The artist is quite fuqed if that is his perception of sex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #5 October 29, 2003 I wonder why the artist thinks a human skeleton would stay more or less intact when hung up like that? I mean, -shouldn't- it fall apart? As for it being art and having the title sex . . . it does make (did make) you think, which is about the highest asperation of most art, isn't it?quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deuce 1 #7 October 29, 2003 I do think it's art. I just thought it might have a title like "Mengela's Joy" or something. Oh crap, I just killed my own thread. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
batbex 0 #8 October 29, 2003 sorry to bring a serious note - but am actually right now writing an essay on the changing nature of art through the ages, due to the advanced level of crap which is supposedly - challenging our perceptions of what art is, produced in the last 50years - I'm skipping that whole era but in fairness the art of the chapman brothers, damian hurst, tracey emin - to mention but a few - are all just as hostile and unnerving as this piece Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #13 October 29, 2003 Well anyone can claim anything is art. Whether it's good art, is a different question. I personally think it is a pile of crap. Does it make me think of sex? I'm not that perverted....yet. Chris _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyIvan 0 #14 October 29, 2003 I know what the 'artist' means: "If you don't have sex or 'kill kittens' you will end up like this" Apparently you people don't know much about art. __________________________________________ Blue Skies and May the Force be with you.
