My opinion is that this kind of 'art'-non art/anti art is meant to shock by provoking disgust and rejection, it is an attack of art on art. This 'art', which is now being promoted and awarded (That's the bad part), aims to change the criteria of values and the discernment of quality. Besides all that, all the paintings seem to be made by a person for whom it doesn't matter which end of the brush she works with...but, what do I know...

"n-word logic going on here. My own view, (for what it’s worth,) is that the word is disgusting and shouldn’t be used by anyone."

Read https://www.amazon.ca/Nigger-Strange-Career-Troublesome-Introduction-ebook/dp/B09668H9F7/ref=sr_1_1?crid=30YJA25E2OO80&keywords=nigger%3A+the+strange+career+of+a+troublesome+word&qid=1668885966&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIwLjgxIiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=nigger+the+strange+career+of+a+troublesome+word%2Caps%2C96&sr=8-1

written by a black professor about the word. It's a worthwhile read, showing the evolution and grades of meaning over time and in different sectors of society for the n-word.
