    When it comes to art I am a philistine i'm afraid. I've got no appreciation or taste whatsoever!

    Won't be able to contribute anything.

    I can only appreciate the aesthetics of art, the pretention that surrounds it and flinging of bovine faecal matter at it in to show off one's pseudo-intellect pisses me off to no end.

    You're suggesting that art can only be interpreted aesthetically and any deeper meaning is nonsensical pretention?

    Don't know a lot about art, but I just generally think modernist art is cool to look at
