One of my roommates is an artist and it was her idea that we go to see the "stuff " they have, and so , come Friday night, we went.
Most of the stuff was unfortunately modern. I have no appreciation or understanding of modern art. Weird shapes, painted squares, stuff that you'd expect from a 5 year old really... so, that's my view on the subject. So we spent a while condemning art critics and other "deciders of What Art is" - it all seems amazingly arbitrary.
There was a room dedicated to Picasso, at which things began to look up a bit- alt least with him, things actually make sense- a little.
A couple of other artists were interesting as well - A chap called Durer who made some incredibly intricate etchings. There was Andy Worhal- whose art Id never seen before - actually (excuse my ignorance), I'd only known the name Andy Worhal very vaguely- had no idea he was a famous artist.
There was a clever photo by a man called Ruscha called "Double Standard",
and another clever one was by one by an artist called Magritte "This is not a Pipe" Which is a rather philosophical thing. Try and figure it out.

exlpain the pipe!!!
I don't see a Pipe. Problem with the links maybe..Or is it the Matrix philosophy: "There IS NO pipe"?
The pic of the pipe- the funda is that its a pic , not the pipe itself- like barath said. It is similar to the paper you sent me- but this was a pretty loooong time ago.
IM REMINDED OF SHERLOCK HOLMES..
our mind tends to think of complex answers to simple kostins to make it more interesting and engaging.. so more often than not, the obvious is oblivious!
