Art o' Not – You're the Critic!

After museum curators and other art connoisseurs accept a two year old’s paint doodles for a genuine artistic effort, many true “artists” should probably call it quits in their profession, or at least so I would imagine. Basically, I’m appalled. This also proves once again that abstract expressionism is nothing but the biggest scam in the history of art. I am all for boosting some kids’ self esteem, but to allocate museum space for supposed masterpieces of a two year old is taking it a bit TOO far, in my opinion. Or am I way off base here?

I especially love the first response in the reader comments section, which goes like this: “Just proves that art curators have no idea!”
