Modern art now (in my opinion) has nothing whatsoever to do with the art itself. Rather it is what the artist was feeling, experiencing, suffering, fill in the blanks at the time of its creation.
Case in point, at the Crystal Bridges Museum In Bentonville, AR (supposedly one of the most modern and up and coming museums in the US based almost solely on its “Green” footprint) there Is a 5’ x 5’ canvas painted completely gray. Supposedly the artist had a sad story or childhood. The interpretation is the art I guess.
