We've had two FANTASTIC showsin a row, with smart guests, and I hope the streak continues! Tonight's guests are scheduled to be Madeleine Albright and Rodrigo y Gabriela.
A young student I know is attending a local community college, and he's having difficulties with his art class professor. It appears that every semester she finds a kid to pick on, and this time it's my young friend.
So I asked to see an example of her work.
See?
Ah! Rotten meat, my old friend. We meet again! I have your brethren in my refrigerator!
WTF is this supposed to be!?!
I "get" it about "in your face" art. A lot of contemporary art is all about the message, and the medium isn't important. I know that some artists aim to confound the viewer and to jar them out of their complacency and preconceived notions. And to a certain extent, I'm willing to get jarred. It can be fun sometimes.
Take a look:
In researching images for this, I found THIS from a blog.
When I think of that hunk of rotten meat duct-taped to the wall that my young friend's art professor made, I can only think, yeah, I could've made that myself, and yes, it's true that I didn't.
But, us "little" people look at stuff like this and wonder if these "artists" think we're morons.
The answer is, yes, they do.
Craig had another GREAT show last night, opening with a SONG celebrating our NAVY!
And then...right in the middle of a segment, the LIGHTS WENT OUT!!!
All hail Craig Ferguson, The King Of Late Night TV
