Fallen Art: 墮落的藝術


墮落有墮落的美,問題是一些當代藝術墮落起來,噁心有餘美感不足.

這個動畫短片對藝術的嘲諷黑色有趣,確實當代藝術有時會有這種走火入魔的情形.Damien Hirst有的作品前衛大膽,奪目耀眼,絕對是好作品,但不代表他所有作品是好的,我認為他走火入魔的系列作品是裝箱泡著福馬林的動物屍體,某些作品說穿了只是動物標本而已,美其名為藝術天價賣出,爭議果然是最上策的行銷.但再高額的拍賣價金也無法點石成金,拍賣槌下落的一刻只是藝術向世界赤裸裸宣告的墮落.

Corruption has its own beauty. However, some corruption of modern art are more gross than beautiful.
This short film darkly caricatures art with wit. It is true some art goes wayward sometimes in some ways. Some works of Damien Hirst are flamboyantly avant-garde, yet it is not equivalent to say all his works are excellent. Some of his wayward works I think are the series of methanal-preserved animal corpses in box, though auctioned in sky-high price but they are just specimens at the core. Argument is indeed the best policy of marketing. But no matter how high the price it is, it ultimately can not change non-art to art. The falling the auction hammer is merely a loud declaration of fallen art to the world.
