Pretty much proving Sean's point, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art says the following about Robert Rauschenberg, White Paintings (1951) (emphasis added) – “Considered shocking and even characterized as a cheap swindle when they were first exhibited publicly in 1953, the White Paintings have gradually secured a place in art history as important precursors of Minimalism and Conceptualism”.Is this art shit? Let’s see what Sean has to say…All music composed, performed and produced by The Ghosts of Nothing, courtesy The Ghosts of Nothing and Perfect Pitch Publishing.
