RE: Spot of the day - The Vigeland Installation - One man's artistic obsession | Madness or genius?
Many thanks for the thoughtful comment and I am glad to have you "on-board"! :) I mostly agree to your point of view on this issue. I try not to judge much when it comes to it as I know that my thoughts on it would be very personal and subjective whilst art means different things to different people. In the the end just because I don't understand something, or care about it enough to try to, doesn't necessarily mean that there isn't a point behind it or that it has no value. It wasn't really my intention to pass any judgement on whether or not the artist is a madman or a genius. Not that that could be easily debated either. As you say, these things pass through a societal filter... But then for all we know the two notions might actually be synonymous.
