From the Rolling Stone 'counter review' of Berlin:
“prettiness has nothing to do with art, nor does good taste, good manners or good morals.”
Pretty much sums up a lot of problems with modern art right there, doesn't it? I mean, if it doesn't even know what standard it is supposed to be transgressing, how can it be intellegible?
"What are you rebelling against?" "Whatta ya got?" indeed...
