Who's into art here? Do you think you need to educate yourself to appreciate it?
I went to the Tate Modern to see Damien Hirst's show yesterday and couldn't really get over-excited about most of it. Particularly the fact that I had to read about the pieces to know what they were trying to say. Doesn't that defeat the object?
I really enjoyed seeing some Henri Rosseau paintings at MoMA in New York, so perhaps I just need obvious art, bold coloured exotic scenes?
Maybe I'm an art-thicko
