I was in Vietnam recently where I saw a mother berating her 3yo son for being shit at colouring in. This is kinda the opposite of that.

And this is why no one can take art seriously.

Are you sure it wasn't Marcel Duchamp's fountain rather than this?

If the girl (or, really, her Mum) can find people willing to pay thousands of dollars for these works, good luck to her!>> ^GenjiKilpatrick:

Thank you. That is exactly what I was about to say, just much more long-winded.

Come on, the value of those paintings will sky-rocket after she dies. I'm sure the investors have that in mind.

Once the novelty fizzles-out? A savvy collector may disagree, or many in a long line of self-proclaimed "experts" may determine this or that of her finger-painted play-time happy fun-time afterbirth interpretations but the long and short of her output to-date looks like Jackson Pollack stepped in front of a subway. Must agree with the gentleman that reminds that a 4-yr-old is simply having fun and going along for the happy-ride. Great way to introduce one's child to the so-called, "Art World" though.

Oh and, 6000 dollars for that cannon-blast of primary colors seems a bit much there sir-You could have taken some art appreciation classes with all that cabbage!!

Yes, it was very much like that.

And this video is nothing new. A few years back, a film was made about the exact same phenomenon. There will always be art and the bullshit that passes as such.

"We're here to protect her, to encourage her and to support her..." They forgot to add "exploit" to that list.
