I thought it was very sad. I think we are conditioned today to thing that ugly and discordant work ( every piece on that site) is to be treasured because it is new. It could be dog****, but it is 'cutting edge' after all. We think of work of high aesthetics and craftsmanship as boring.

Representational artists all too often repeat themselves and go for the hackneyed and trite, which is why we are so often and justly ignored.
