I had the displeasure of viewing the Ceal Floyer exhibition yesterday at KW gallery in Berlin. From the playboy bunny insignia to the used pen tester sheets upstairs culminating in the white receipt, the whole exhibition felt incredibly cheap, immature and short on talent.
Picasso when confronted with young artists explaining the idea behind their work would frequently tell them to shut up and paint.. I would have liked him to meet Ceal Floyer.

This is not the stupidest piece of “art” I’ve seen (that would be a 2′x4′ canvas painted solid orange titled “M”) but it is a very close second. I will give the (ahem)”artist” a smidgeon of credit for the thought put into the concept but, without some sort of aesthetic merit, this is not art.
