Mermaids are not all that wacky, and the viewer is encouraged to journey into subjective interpretation.
Paintings frequently looking out to the viewer externally emotionless, because art does not imitate the visible. I'm not a mathematician, but I'm guessing that this is the kind of image that might be involved. Rectangles have once again showcased unparalleled innovation. If you were to squeeze pictures like a lemon you would get nothing more out of the picture.
A temptation among gallery owners to medicalize loneliness— and to tout simplistic solutions to a complex and natural part of the human experience.
Like much of images on ironic art, meaning is uncertain and doubtful.
How to repair the bridge between visual artists and the viewing public? Serious art produces fish cartoons that people don't need to have.
People are interesting. Abstract art is about as exciting as watching paint dry.
Art people are pinkish. The true secret to drawing is in crazy creativity, not in technical mechanics.
Goya, The innumerable follies to be found in any civilized society, after this he was humble as a mushroom.

Since desire emerges in the gap between demand and need, it is conceivable that pictures could desire nothing.

To arrive at the edge of the page's knowledge, seek out the most ludicrous ideas, put them on paper together, and have them ask each other the questions they are asking themselves: Are absurd pictures being convicted of the worthlessness of our opinion?
A good painting should have pretty eyes, a mouth and a great pair of legs, art needs and wants. Without personifications, the idea is not visible. No data is perfect, every painting is a road map to modernism. The past as a model for looking at the world today.
Ultimately, we're trying to get at biological truths, even anxiety drawings of fears. I know that. You know that. Silliness raises essential questions about our place in the world.
"Abstraction continues to be an absolutely necessary antidote or counterspell to the aesthetics of distraction, the visual noise offered by mass media and everyday life."
W.J.T. Mitchell
Mental life (memory, imagination...) is embodied in the whole range of material media. The materials essential for modern technologies were born in the belly of the planet. Pictures require time and free space.
