I have hardly stopped laughing It is so very hard to take abstract art seriously. Here is what the old school definition of abstract art was and it wasn't very kind. "Def: Abstract art. A seperate social arena for the mentally and artistically challanged to pretend they are actual artists and patrons. This is demonstrated by the fact that the artist trained in the classical diciplines can paint abstract images but the abstractionist cannot paint in classical diciplines." It's like a fellow that owns a plunger calling himself a plumber. Yet the interesting thing about this whole conflict is, it really does take talent and I believe, artistic spirit, to capture the essence of somthing in artful representation. That is the primary mission in abstract art. It is about "essence". The reduction of line and form to disolve into elemental geometry is but one of many styles (solutions) to attain that end. Some were painfully yet monsterously complex such as the works of J. Pollack. So this contest is a bit style-restrictive per the instruct we've been given by Newsey but I think that is due to his personal taste or maybe just trying to keep it simple. Anyway, within the abstract movement there were a lot of styles used to make the forms like fragmented, fluid, reduction, impasto, geometric, spatter, splatter, Negative-positive play.... you can probably think of a lot more. So, I respectfully submit an abstract of a fragmentary style, excruciatingly complex yet simple in essence.

There's abstraction and abstraction ^^ Some of them can't paint classical, nor abstract painting, they're just making good or bad jokes, depending on the price people are ready to pay for it

So true. I guess Tom Wolfe said it best in "The Painted Word" which was essentially an expose on the abstract movement and it's corruption and social irresponsibility just to turn a buck and be "chick" in the process. I sort of gleaned from that book that you could market fly droppings if you had the right team of hoodwinkers and guilable wealthy folk. And if you do it really, really well you can actually legitizimize anything in the public perception. Leo Castelli was a criminal marketing genius, Peggy Gugenheim a very close second.
