Is this art or garbage?

[Just A Butt]

it's in the Steve Guttenberg museum but that doesn't settle my dispute. watch it and get back to me

 

[wry wrangler]

all art is trash
all trash is art
nothing is everything
everything is nothing

Trecartin is such a genius that you can't get him or his oeuvre out of your head and you're still talking about him weeks after we watched this together.

weeks

i will unleash Pasta upon you

 

[AHAHAHAHAHAHA]

Ryan Trecartin cuts that fine line between idiot savant and maybe actually retarded.
But he defiantly makes stuff more memorable art than a lot of classical art I've viewed at museums.

 

[Maskull]

Pasta is the most important character in all of cinematic history.


Change my mind.

all art is trash
all trash is art
nothing is everything
everything is nothing

You are so smart, wry. You've basically synopsized all of whatever we're talking about in the cleverest and most succinct way.

Is there poop involved?

 

[Just A Butt]

Is there poop involved?

the "cinematic genius" that some other people here seem to really love gets a dick in his pooper, if that counts

 

[Penis Drager]

Sounds pretty gay to me.
Given that art is primarily the purview of homosexuals, I'd say this passes as art.

All caca is pee
but all pee is caca

 

[Revo]

Yes.

Don't tell me what to do.

 

[Great President of McHell]

It was art enough for Death Grips to sample it.

It was art enough for Death Grips to sample it.

literally who

 

[Solid Snek]

At the risk of sounding cliche, I'd say... both?

I don't know much about this piece, and I honestly only made it about five minutes (at first it looked it was going to be some kind of pedobait, then it looked it like it was turning into an insufferable Warhol/Rubniz homage to early Youtube - either way, no thanks, not going to spend an hour on it), but it looks like the director was trying to make a point about (what he assumed would be) the deleterious effects of social media on the young.

If that is the case, then "being garbage" is part of its "being art".

I've watched 45-65 seconds of this and in answer to your question: the kids from gummo would carve these people up and sell their primal cuts to a chinese restaurant
