I really enjoy the visual appeal of pollack paintings, but there's a voice in my head that I can't silence. It says "I could have commissioned a 6 year-old to paint this for the cost of a candy bar. The level of skill required is much, much lower than for other styles of art. It looks cool, but that's about it. Even if the artist was trying to express certain emotions and ideas, there's no way for that to be effectively communicated to the viewer in any meaningful way. It's not really a representation of anything. The things that AREN'T in the painting are more important than the things that are. That's interesting as a novelty, but it gets old incredibly fast. I'd pay $40 for this piece and really enjoy owning it, but anyone who pays millions has motivations beyond the visual appeal and appreciation for the artist's skill and expression. It's the emperor's new clothes."

Idk, maybe you could say that about most art. I'm probably just too dumb to appreciate it.
