BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Police on Friday removed the corpse of a man believed to have hanged himself at least a year ago after builders and students at Budapest's University of Arts had initially mistaken it for a modern sculpture.
The body hung for a whole day in a garden building that had been re-opened for repairs before onlookers realized what it was and called the police, local media said.
The building, in campus grounds crowded with different types of sculpture, had been closed five years ago pending reconstruction work.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
This is why I hate art critics... they can see whatever the hell they want in a work of art except for what it really is. A dead corpse...
*sigh*

I can't even begin to go into whats wrong with todays "art" if a hanging corpse goes unnoticed simply because that type of crappy "shock" art is so commonplace.
What ever happened to the pretty paintings that made me actually want to look at them? I feel sorry for the poor social elitist wannabes that think crap like that is art.

Yeah, that's Art... Most of this retarded Abstract Art should be burned. Grrr.
Yeah, that didn't make any sense. I'm suprised it didn't give off a smell.
I think people <b>do not know</b> what art is, they cannot define it, therefore whatever someone thinks is art obviously is. And so, abstract/modern art is born. Of course, the only comeback the critics have is 'you dont understand art', but really, do they?
