The Art of Painting

It took the artists to paint landscape and then people realized how beautiful it is. Nowadays, artists are painting pictures of damp stained walls and floors where people have dropped a lot of paint. You go to an exhibition of contemporary non-objective painting and he says, that's not what I call a picture because he is against his prejudices. But I say to people now, excuse me, take a look at that again. That painting is a colored photograph of guess what? And he looks at it in astonishment, in entirely new eyes.
