Also wtf is it with Tracy Emin. She can't fucking draw ffs that is the basic requirement of an artist surely.

You need to get yourself to Afghanistan to learn about conceptual art.

She's nae Henry Hill that's for sure.

 

Can't remember if I mentioned Tims Vermeer in the film thread, but it's an excellent film that says something about the nature of art.

 

Tim had never picked up a brush in his life and his first attempt at painting is to reproduce a vermeer identically and he pulls it off incredibly well. It shows that Vermeer himself wasn't necessarily a talented "drawer", despite causing a seismic shift in styles across the artworld with his paintings which were miles ahead of anyone else at that time in terms of how they recreated what the eye could see.

 

Tim ends up impressing Hockney with his painting, which he did every brushstroke on himself.

 

Premiere+Sony+Pictures+Classics+Tim+Verm

 

There's nothing artistic in what Tim does whatsoever though. It's a magic trick and not an original one. Vermeer performed the magic trick 400 years ago, but he was artistic, because he was the first to do it. He was original. Which I suppose is all that great art has to be.
