Modern Art

Yes, however I am bad at art and modern art lets me pretend I am an artist.

nah, its not that easy, yes there are some ridiculous shit goin around now and then but theres mostly reasons why modern art is concidered art, background info of most modern art matters more than the actual material. ı can go into heavy detail with some examples

go back in time and kill edouard manet i guess

People who use the term "modern art" have no idea what it means like 90% of the time and it drives me freakin crazy. Modern art starts around like 1870s or 1880s and last til maybe 1960ish.  It's stuff like impressionism, dada, cubism, surrealism, social realism, expressionism etc.  It's not conceptual art, which is what people are hating on like 90% of the time.  Roman statue reactionary weirdos will use Rodin's thinker like it's a piece of classic art when really it's one of the seminal works of modernism.  If you're gonna be a hater, know your damn history.
