This is like the epitome of ugly, and yet it gets so much compliments, and the price is not low, some mixture of techniques, probably made in windows paint in the ugliest colors... do people really have such bad taste? I mean, it's illogical.

Original Post: Ugly Art

Would like candid opinions this subject: Ugly Art

I have noticed the web has numerous articles on the subject of opinions as to what modern art is "ugly". I just thought it would be cool to hear from artists who have an opinion about this.

My opinion is there is lots of stuff considered art which is "ugly" to me. Ugly in the sense that it is revolting, untalented, poorly presented and something which I hope not to see again.

The only thing is such descriptions are close to the things of reality which are ugly such as murder, rape, war, violence and inhumane behavior toward animals and people. I can't offer a picture since I tend to avoid the reality of ugliness in life as well as art.
