Fuckin' white people.

[N D Hill]

some hipster kid smears food on herself, masturbates/pisses on the floor...

Oh, come on. We've all been there.

[BlightedArt]

Edit: was a little joke but felt probably too offensive. Editing out.

[Brian.May]

This is what happens when "concept" overrides craft in art. Evidently people didn't get the memo about having both. I have grown slightly bitter by the amount of conceptual crap that comes out with an utter lack of attention to craft.
Conceptual performance art is just another nail in that coffin.

[Craig D]

I'd be skinny too if it took me almost two minutes to open a can of food.
Maybe she should take a techniques course.

[Blahm]

that would be an awsome room to roll a granade into

[Kamber Parrk]

Tear gas?
Flash/Bang?
Or one that expels a couple dozen chunks of rubber buckshot?

[MidgardSerpent]

That was hilarious, it's was just so stereotypical, even the audience and their response are like every art cliche rolled in one.
It's also painfully familiar because I've seen very similar things in my own art school experiences.

I don't think conceptual performance art is inherently bad though, there's a real charm to it when done well, but of course it's usually just an excuse for
people to be all ''art-ey''.

[s.ketch]

there's a real charm to it when done well

Indeed.

[OldJake666]

Look at those fucking hipsters!

[Blahm]

Tear gas?
Flash/Bang?
Or one that expels a couple dozen chunks of rubber buckshot?

I would say that a flashbang would be the most fun.

[FourTonMantis]

canned food probably wasn't the best route...I mean really...two minutes?

[BlightedArt]

Tin can: Two minutes.
Fresh banana: 5 seconds.

That's called Taylorism.

[FourTonMantis]

what I really want to know is how the hell is this still on youtube...?

[Sepulverture]

Rubber? You're a humanitarian, aren't you?

[Hyskoa]

Napalm.

Fuckin' white people.

And hey HEY, don't lump me in with these afterbirths.

[Crash]

OMG that was hilarious. So stereotypical. And in the end everyone was clapping their hands like trained dogs. God im so happy im not in that kind of crowd.


The blowjob had me in TEARS, god that was funny.

[Mr.Delicious]

Shoulda just walked up and took a shit right on that girl, make believe it was part of the show.

But really, that was somethin .

And that blowjob one... I want to just hang out with these people one day just to figure out how you can think you're that deep.

[brianvds]

Oh well, to each his own, but it irritates me that much of this crap is funded by taxpayers' money...

Makes me kind of relieved to be living here in Dark Africa, where we have few of these rich pricks, and our tax money is stolen by corrupt government officials for themselves instead of the university's "art" department. At least we get a few shiny new cars in the street this way, and the only people who piss in public are those too poor to afford ablution facilities... ;-)

[Armonah]

What the fuck did I just watch?

Edit: The tags* explain something about the masturbation/pissing on the floor, it's squirting.
*(Pizza Forever (21) Chicago Art Performance Vagina Squirting)

I think before dismissing it as "not art" we first have to establish a solid definition of art, and God knows we don't want another one of those discussions. But I think we can all agree that it's terrible nonetheless.

[gjpetch]

it irritates me that much of this crap is funded by taxpayers' money...

Yeah, this looks like a pretty expensive production :eyeroll:

It was pretty lame and cliched and not terribly well thought through, but there's way more boring and/or shocking performance art out there. You have to at least say that the girl has guts.

What I don't get is all the aggression in this thread. Grenades? Napalm? Really? Because of their clothing and taste in art? Just slightly excessive response don't you think? I'd rather hang out with pretentious art students than someone that judgmental of superficial appearance.

You're right, there should be more.

Grenades? Napalm? Really? Because of their clothing and taste in art?

No, it's because they're retarded. And napalm fixes this.

Just slightly excessive response don't you think?

I had to scratch 20 more excessive responses before I got to an extremely mild one. See? I'm a caring person.

I'd rather hang out with pretentious art students than someone that judgmental of superficial appearance.

I don't judge how they superficially look, I judge what they are and represent. The rise of selected retardation in official institutions that are not mental facilities.

Cheers.

[Jason Rainville]

Indeed.

She should have rigged it to throw sparks at the end

[tja88]

ahah this is epic

[Baron Impossible]

And people wonder why I don't tell anyone I'm an artist. Or maybe I should...

"Oh that's interesting, what kind of art do you do?"

"Well, generally I cover my johnson in beans and whack off in front of a bunch of retards."

"?"

[Vilya]

Just another case of herp-derping attentionwhores who figured out doing outrageous things to annoy the hell out of conservative people is the best way to get it. I think this is where they usually say "oh lol you reacted so our art is justified" XD

[Qikalain]

There was a artmovment in Vienna in the 20th century and those artists were meeting in secret locations for a limited audience. those artist would cover themselves in their own shit,etc. reminds me a lot of the video. i dont remeber what it was called i think fluxus or happening

anyway its funny how you people get offended by that video and all the hate comments.
