Nathan's+Criteria

1. In my opinion good Art should have at least two meanings, the first one being the meaning the artist intended, any meanings other than the first being those made-up by viewers and critics and she be as far off from the orignal meaning as possible.

2. In my opinion good Art should be created so that even an insanely ignorant person can form an opinion. That way you know you get your message across.

3. In my opinion good Art should be able to capture the attention of any viewer, without the use of flashy colors. That way even people who are colorblind can enjoy it.

4. In my opinion good Art should not be judged by the quality of the work, but by the impact it has.

5. In my opinion good Art should be unique and not unique at the same time. Just because you can be innovative, doesn't mean you should be.

6. In my opinion good Art has to be seen in context.

Jessica Stockholder - Her art fits criteria 1 perfectly. However she fails 2, 3 and 5. Her impact is not positive or constructive at all, so she fails 4 as well. From what she says, I think that she honestly believes that she is creating art the people can understand, which then cancels out her passing number 1… so she fails…

I HATE HAILEY BLACK AND JACEY BRYAN love youu <3 - hab

I love Chagall's work so much I can't even describe it. The way he uses color, even different shades of grey, is beautiful. I do not like Stockholders work at all. While her work is visually appealing, her use of color doesn't contribute to the overall composition. It's just annoying.
