1. This video may be goofed up. I have tried several times but it keeps cutting out and ending very early. I have never had this happen on Youtube. Maybe it need to be re-uploaded. Was going good but quit trying to make it work. Thanks.

2. The video worked fine for me and is worth a try.

3. Very interesting and informative, well worth the hour and a half as audience member and I will definitely follow up by seeking out the paintings of Monique Prieto. Thanks for posting.

9. If everyone feels that he's so terrible, then who's a worthy art critic?

10. Despite being the battle cry of the bad artist, it's really true that art is subjective. in 1964, Swedish art critics were heftily praising the works of Pierre Brassau, with descriptions like "Brassau paints with powerful strokes, but also with clear determination. His brush strokes twist with furious fastidiousness. Brassau is an artist who performs with the delicacy of a ballet dancer."

    Brassau's methods? He "preferred eating the paint to placing it on a canvas." Because Brassau was a fucking chimpanzee.

11. Critics are those who never can do for themself.
    Critics are an determinate to art.
    You David, show always the shit in your mouth.
    Artists are beyond your compromise. Critics are based on masterbation. Go and fuck yourself. You are scum.

12. Please don't share.

13. Is it just Youtube or has the whole culture become a collection of people who" kinda, sort, like" don't know anything (add approval-seeking question inflection), but who simultaneously feel entitled to babble about there vague speculations all day long. Terrible. Where did all the grown ups go?
