Is this art, or not? I can't tell. http://www.caplakesting.com/2006_catalog/de/

As an artist friend of mine would say: Yes its art, whether it is good art is the question.

This one is really confusing, actually, and never mind that nonsense about everything is art if someone says it is.
  • On the one hand, it's political and controversial, and some people are all upset over it. So that would make it art.
  • On the other hand, it's pro-life, so that's a count against it being art.
  • It's reconizable as representative, so not art.
  • But it's a sculpture of a naked woman, provocatively posed, so it should qualify.
  • Of course, the naked woman is modeled on Britney Spears, so . . . I don't know what that means.


Actually, I like it, on its own. Having it "explained" diminishes it a good deal, if you ask me.
