MY taste is definitely the enemy of this sort of 'art'! The guy who came up with this one is laughing his socks off, imo. What is artistic about switching a light on/off in a bare room with blank walls? If this is art, I'm a Philistine! There might be some value in it if there were objects in there, and lights came on from different angles to create varied shadow-effects, but as it is.....



'Modernist' art Fljotsdale. There is an ideology behind such work. [img]smile.gif[/img]
