Read the write up, the author is praising this as “contemporary visual art”. *SPIT*

See, I always thought, after Sam Goldwyn’s line, ars gratia artis. Art for art’s sake, not for any other purpose. To suggest that the work of art or the artist has to convey some message, political or otherwise, is the Stalinist theory of art. And it sucks.
