"Art for non-snobs is snobbism" - yes, and no. Snobs have a superiority complex; but non-snobs have an inferiority complex? I disagree. "Snobs" to me are people who are into art. At all. I've been in art school, in galleries, my parents, most of my friends and contacts are artists. Art snobs are not artists. They're the ones buying into trendy, hipster things; getting into something because it's hip, not even *asking themselves if that art have any intrinsic value in their eyes... |

You can reject snobbism. And that's it. Forget it. |

The sort of snobbery I encounter is generally in response to my negative comments about say an exhibition of abstract expressionist art. I am in effect told that if only I had more knowledge of art I would appreciate it. |
