— CAC
-Book of Moron, 6:9
He has made His presence known, and his followers shall be most numerous today, particularly since it is free for all SoCal residents until closing this evening.
The first reviews are now in, and I'm sure you morons will have some fun with this one in particular. I will have mine up shortly after my pilgrimage.
LACMA is located at 5905 Wilshire Blvd in Los Angeles, just east of Fairfax.
Just a disclaimer, which I seem to have to put in every thread relating to His Graniteness: this was paid for entirely with private funds- including compensating any city workers (police, etc) hired for safety/coordination. None of your tax dollars went to this. Those went into the Miramonte School for Sanduskys-in-training.

Wow!! One photo by the Times manages to succinctly capture the raw emotion and despair, the searing helplessly of the California Taxpayer living beneath the incredible waste and debt created by our Liberal politicans... Brilliant...

He could have narrowed the trench towards the bottom...eliminating the need for the buttressing.

Decomposed granite, sloping gently toward the slot, seems like a forecast of the megalith's slowly decaying future, reaching forward to its destiny

San Diego has a long tradition of expensive and aggresively ugly outdoor sculptures, e.g. "Okeanos," a.k.a. "The Scripps Turd."
http://preview.tinyurl.com/4e297x8
The monstrosity was placed at the entrance to Scripps hospital, possibly so that arriving patients could visualize the colon cancer dooming them to a painful and undignified death.
By popular demand, it was eventually moved a mile away to a street corner in a light industrial park. I used to drive past that thing every day. I wanted to fabricate some large plastic flies and attach them to it with string, but I never got around to it.

ok there is some visiual attractiveness with the shadows playing on the wall and floor of the culvert, but what does it represent?
man held down by rock?
man cllimbs out from under a rock?
man should have stayed under a the rock?
or a man wanting to just move a rock to an improbable space?

If someone wanted to tell me that this is an example of what modern engineering can accomplish, I guess I'd say - "you've made a strong point here." The ENGINEERING accomplishment was not trivial.
But this isn't art.
When I was a kid, if I had dug a slot in my sand box and put a big rock over the slot, then ran to tell my parents of what brilliant "art" I just made, it's almost certain I'd have wound up in a "special" school. And not the good kind.

Art is personal, and if you don't like it, me telling you to won't change your mind. I don't like the "oh I could have done that" when you are talking about moving one of the largest chunks of stone...ever moved by man...over a concrete culvert. You could come up with the idea, but actually executing it (in the implied "done that") is silly. Stick to calling it crap.
I am still pissed about the buttresses.

Looking at the pics over at LAT, I don't see how this installation could have occurred without the buttresses.
Did someone build the concrete rails too far apart?

If they had left the darn thing where it was and said come take a look at this big ass rock, I'd have probably done it. I'd have liked to put my cheek against it, feel the coolness of it, marvel at the sheer size and density of it.
But calling it art and making me drive in to LA where I am probably not even allowed to touch it is damned annoying.
And yes I get that the art part is all about the levitating and being out of its natural state, but I'm a touchy feely kind of 'ette.

Posted by: Kim Kardashian at June 24, 2012 11:50 AM (7ppar)
I think you all are focussing on the wrong thing: it's not the rock, it's the art critic. I mean, "The sober, even solemn finished sculpture at LACMA reminds us that our headlong tendency to divide a world of rich, granular grays into stark black-or-white is its own form of ruin." You have to go to school for at least a couple of years to produce inflated prose like that.
Or, "Like a walk-in version of an alien landscape painting by Surrealist Yves Tanguy, quiet dynamism inflects a decidedly sepulchral scene." Now that is a work of art. Something is dynamic - can't be the rock because it's bolted in place - and something is sepulchral, but it can't be the rock or the ditch because there's all that bright sunshine. Unless of course you're me, desperate to get out of the sun, and will gladly spend the entire day crouched under the rock like a troll.
Or, "Arrival at the bottom is momentarily disconcerting. After all, how often does one see the underside of a 680,000-pound rock? The bemusement soon dissipates, though, replaced by simple curiosity about the construction's elaborate engineering." I'm guessing that the bottom of a 680,000 pound rock looks like, I don't know, a rock? Is one really bewildered or confused by being under something one deliberately chose to walk under? Only if one is a complete and utter dunce.
This critic makes Meggie McCain look semi-coherent.

Your lack of appreciation for the applied hermeneutics of Heizer's grand opera reminds one of the vulgarians that Harpsbach so tellingly skewered in many of his lesser works. One is puzzled by the...smallness...of your senses, and what is so glaringly obvious an omission in your artistic and sensory education. Perhaps the lack of emotional engagement that you demonstrate by your cavalier attitude toward the semiotic breakthrough that has been made by those who would normally be unable to appreciate this religio-sexual gesture in the Western desert indicates your flaws as a hetero-normative purveyor of lumpen-proletariat prose masquerading as criticism.

At first I thought the buttresses were lame, but then I thought hey maybe while your standing under it you might wonder about the buttresses failing and get a little thrill, like when you're standing at the edge of a cliff. So it's a giant scrotum that can make your balls retract when you stand under it (don't know the 'ette analog there). There's a symmetry somewhere there I think.

Again, probably a total neophyte view here, but to me Art is a lot like obscenity. I can't really define it, but I know it when I see it.
That kinda reinforces the point about it being undefinable, because everyone sees things differently. Of course that doesn't mean we can't say something is shit.

CAC: Your Art Threads, and their implied attempt to get the readers some learnin', couth and culture, are indeed appreciated.
But there's a problem: the vast majority of modern artists (say post-1950) consider themselves to be, if perhaps not of the caliber of Praxiteles, then only slightly less, and still suitable for first-string competition in the Stadium of Ageless and Enduring Examples of The Pinnacle of Civilizational Art. But judging them by their, "offerings", "product", "dumps" (see Yoko Ono's Dirt Piles) ... they are rightly placed elsewhere; a few blocks away from the stadium parking lot, feverishly searching for a free spot (any spot, so long as their ride and their ride's wheels will still be there when they return), seems much more accurate.
Who among them has ever shown basic talent and ability at the level of the various 19th Century painters and sculptors, or even the more abstract cubists: Delaunay, Gris, Braque? Perhaps that's it ... as the French say "lack du Monet". Kincade may not have invented "Happy Trees", but he was at least able to successfully swipe and market the idea, leaving many people culturally-enriched at the expense of enriched-enriched.
The opportunity to exercise one's innate Art Critic abilities presents itself, and maintiaining civil restraint is asking too much.

Art used to require skill, the ability to make the medium do something to evoke a response. This modern crap is lazy--it's just put out there, and the viewer is expected to do all the work.
Posted by: Brother Cavil, New Caprica Sanitation Department at June 24, 2012 06:34 PM (x8wJs)
Yeah, well said. I don't know dick about art but I know what I like.
My two faves are the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and Georges Seurat's "Sunday Afternoon."
I like the detail probably because I'm a detail oriented person and it appeals to me. Most post-modern art seems sloppy and lazy.
There are pieces of "art" that decorate the green spaces of Ohio State and CCAD that look like someone bent I-beams into sharp angles and spray painted them with Krylon red.
What the fuck is that supposed to be? That's not art, that's shit and a waste of money. I don't give a fuck if that's the artists interpretation of a moon spirit rising towards the sky god or whatever the fuck it's supposed to mean.
It's a fucking waste and annoying. And I'm tired of people telling me that I must appreciate it or otherwise I'm a fucking caveman or something.

That would be a good time to go to an art gallery.

Did you read Jake Tapper's review?

No but I read he wasn't impressed, but I don't need anyone to tell me that a Sorkin show celebrating the progressive media isn't going to suck.

Thank goodness the environmentalist lobby got it's way and shut down all that evil logging. Those bastards kept thinning out the forests in such a way that wildfires were often prevented and even when they did spring up they generally didn't spread anywhere near as far or as fast as they do today.

There was a forestry guy on Fox and Friends last week that said that firefighters have become so adept at putting out fires that now the underbrush builds up for years, just waiting for a calamity to happen.
