when people make fun of Fine Art, they usually go for conceptualism, even if they are too ignorant to realize it.
example: Marcel Duchamp's "Fountain" I'll get to this guy eventually....
You might also hear of Artists' being so ridiculous, that they use their own feces in their artwork...
Well Guess What..... There are such people, I'm going over one Today
Piero Manzoni
This Italian artist(1933 -63) was best known for a series of work that basically (remember I'm not going into detail, This is just an intro) says that anything that comes out of the artist, must be considered art. Yes there is a method to his madness...
This Series Included Artist's Breath 1960
...And the Ever famous (drumroll Please) ..................................

Artist's Shit 1961 Yes, That's what it's called
Yep these babies currently go for around $80,000, well in 2007 anyway, wonder what it's worth is now
