More modern art hi-jinks

I read this in today's paper.

The reputation of modern art went on trial in the south of France yesterday. Two brothers are accused in a court in Grasse of faking sculptures, supposedly by the internationally celebrated French artist, César. Two well-known art dealers, one French, one Belgian, are accused of selling the works knowing them to be false.
After eight years of investigations, the one-week trial will inevitably turn into something else: an inquisition into the credulity of art experts and the artless banality of modern art, or at least some modern art.
César Baldaccini, who died in 1998, was celebrated above all for his "compressions" – sculptures made by squashing cars or fridges or other consumer goods into dense metallic squares or oblongs. To the inexpert eye, there was little difference between a César sculpture and a block of compressed metal churned out by a scrapyard. There was equally little difference, it turns out, to the expert eye.

In a nutshell, dear reader, some artist has been making stuff out of junk, people with their head up their arse have been proclaiming it 'art', it's been coining in thousands over the years, bought by elitist tossers with too much money, (there's some in the Tate Modern of course, there would be, wouldn't there?). His 'compressions' (pictured left) were celebrated and sold for many thousands.
Now they've found out skiploads of them are 'fakes' knocked up by some guy in his garage in fifteen minutes. Oddly, the art experts couldn't tell the difference between the scrunched up rubbish that was 'art', and the scrunched up rubbish that wasn't.

Strange that. . it's almost like as if they were always worthless pieces of junk, isn't it?

HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!

Modern art my arse!
