ART today is too symbol-driven, too obsessed by it's propagandistic
potential, too contrived in its lukewarm nihilism to interest us any more
(yawn). So, the good folks at IdEAL ORDER have decided to call it quits,
with regard to ART ;-). From now on, our work will be driven solely by the
investigation of BEAUTY.
Only BEAUTY can induce true corruption; the corruption of the "good."
Only BEAUTY is truly meaningless.
Only BEAUTY can foil the machinations of the ART industry and its search
for symbolic novelty.
BEAUTY is beyond ART. BEAUTY storms the heavens and robs our gods
of their peace. BEAUTY brings these gods - money, fame, power, religion,
the threat of knowledge beyond thought.
Unfortunately, not all "ARTists" have what it takes to explore the realm of
the beautiful, because BEAUTY cannot be attained. So good luck, people,
ART is dead... most of you might as well all call it quits ;-).
Another irrational provocation from:
IdEAL ORDER
