It is fair to say that not enough people understand the beauty of modern art. Be it a skull encrusted with diamonds, an unmade bed or a room full of fake sunflower seeds, this discipline of creativity has failed to inspire many people, giving rise to acusations of pretentiousness. However, the latest exhibition to take advantage of this area of art is "invisible art". Yep, you guessed it, art that isn't actually art.
The creators of the exhibition claim that the invisibility allows people to explore their imagination and it proves that art isn't about material but mind. In my opinion, this is a fantastic way to steal £8 per person without receiving a visit from the police (unless of course they have a penchant for invisible rat). I bet they even get a tax break...
I think my favourite quote from the Guardian has to be that you can "see an artwork that has been created by the artist staring at it for 1000 hours". This is a very liberal use of the term 'created'. It claims he has been staring at the blank piece of paper for over 5 years. Some people call it art, I call it a lack of mental stability.
I think its fair to say that this exhibition is something that nobody saw coming...
