We've been suffering the products of the dregs of the intellectual effete for a century, thanks to faggots like Duchamp who signed a pseudonym (R.Mutt) on a cast ceramic urinal and stuck it in a gallery.
Post-modernism is the avant-garde standard, built on deconstructionism and subverting every imaginable aspect of what defines a work of art as good/great.
I went to art school, this school of "creative" thought is pervasive & pushed on everyone, usually while they're too young to have any qualifications for comprehending the world, or having anything worthwhile to say about it. Most are too stupid to grasp the philosophical nuance required to actually speak about and critique art, so they just flail about trying to copy the most outrages nonsense they see from other "artists".
"Marcel Duchamp’s female alter-ego Rrose Sélavy fully surfaced in 1921 — a sultry, stylish vixen in photographs by Man Ray. Her name sounds like Eros, c’est la vie, or “Eros, that’s life.”
