Oh, Poop! I thought it was gas!by
dcanossaComment: Its all relative.. I saw this and thought "hahah-ewwwww" at the same time.. You have balls brother (thanksfully cropped out of this
shit shot.
I don`t know if I could find myself calling it art, but if I recall at a DPC GTG (get together) in London, we all met up at the tate modern gallery, one of the exhibits was literally just a huge crack in the floor (
see here)
however, I remember a number of us discussing it and wondering how it was art - one person said one thing, another person had another idea - but the thing is, a lot of us was standing there discussing a crack in the floor.. so surely the fact it promoted discussion amongst so many people of different backgrounds makes it art. Art is intended to provoke reaction, stimulate conversation... Mate, you ticked all the boxes with this one.. oh and yes, some of the commentors below joined me in that discussion of the crack in the floor.. go figure.
Did I find it offensive? most certainly. Did I find it funny - sure, on a base `childish` level it made me giggle in my head. Do I have respect for you posting it knowing it would get `panned` (ho ho) - totally..
I think some of those who were really offended should check out work by highly respected artists such as Tracey Emin or Damian Hirst - they have shocked in the past but are very well respected in artistic circles. (well, Not Emin so much anymore).
