Bad is a subjective term. This art is bad. There's not much art here, actually. I can't really tell what this is supposed to say, because artsy is an insult yet he's saying my site was pseudo-artsy so maybe he thinks I'm intentionally parodying artsy or maybe he thinks I tried to be artsy but failed... it's very ambiguous. What I do gather is that somehow I held my site up to be "art" and have "value" in some way that he doesn't hold his site as? It's very unclear.
My best guess is this: While my site was obviously terrible art, his piece of art is so minimally expressive that he's actually making my work seem better by comparison. Nice juxtaposition (word). If my site is pseudo-artsy, this is flame-artsy. And flamers can't help but make whoever they are flaming look that much better by comparison. So, in closing, thanks for this site! It's amazing how great you make me look just by being yourself!
"How can you qualify art as bad? There is no "bad" art, only art that suits your tastes, and art that doesn't. Art is a subjective medium for self-expression after all." So retarded songs like "Milkshake," "Hollaback Girl," "My Humps," and "Candy Shop" can be considered "personal expression?" If so, then I DEFINITELY don't want to meet the people who wrote those songs, because they've just expressed themselves to be rather dim.
Well, my interpretation is that some people, represented by the seals, will call anything "art". What else can a seal say? If you show a seal anything and it reacts, it basically kind of makes the same "artartart" Dew Army type noise wether it's a Rembrandt or a statue of the Virgin Mary made of elephant dung or a bunch of random lines and squiggles. It's critiquing the critics more than the art itself.
The key is in the description. "pseudo-artsy sea lions defend the artistic value..." Sea Lions can't be pseudo-artsy, but Sea Lions as an abstraction of people (who only know how to say one thing) can be. But, that's just my oppinion. I think the shaken babies are used because many pseudo artists simply think up the most shocking thing they can to pass off art.
