I think it will ONLY work from one angle. If the picture was taken from another angle would it look the same? I don't think its very smart.

I'm pretty sure that was the idea. The underlying theme might be that we don't notice things until the parameters of abstraction are removed.

I can never get these new so called Art. Much like I can't understand why Chris Bangle is hailed as great. :thumbsdown:

cheers

Chris Bangle did design the car we've all chosen to purchase, so he must have done something right.

It's a good thing the world is full of people open to new ideas of art. If it were up to you, I guess we'd still all be staring at cave drawings.

You do not have to like a work of art in order to appreciate it.
