From the ARC article:

"a frivolous, easily distracted age is diluted and embarrassed by the antics of charlatans"

When professional "art appreciators" drive modern opinion (those who look, but never DO), we'll continue to see acclaim for being the most pretentious.

These people, the awarders of Turner Prizes, don't thrive in a vacuum. They're given air to breath, food to eat and nice comfy chairs to sit in. If we have the priviledge to work in a garden, should we trouble ourselves if others chose to hoe rows in the desert?
