If you ever wanted proof that beauty and value is objective and intrinsic , then just look at the paintings that the Just Stop Oil morons are vandalising.
They never attack ugly modern art because it looks like somebody threw a can of paint at a canvas to begin with .
True, but let's agree there is lost of talent on #artsrt

Bahahaha right? Meanwhile ugly modern art was a CIA operation to justify American ideals of freedom and independence (to be ugly and uninspired) over the soviet unions mandates for conformity to classical beauty norms

“Art once made a cult of beauty. Now we have a cult of ugliness instead. This has made art into an elaborate joke, one which by now has ceased to be funny.”
