…Saatchi says he finds the new art world toe-curling. “My little dark secret is that I don’t actually believe many people in the art world have much feeling for art and cannot tell a good artist from a weak one, until the artist has enjoyed the validation of others. ”Few people in contemporary art demonstrate much curiosity, and spend their days blathering on, rather than trying to work out why one artist is more interesting than another.”

I wonder what his definition of a good artist is…
We all do! And that is the point! To keep creating, keep redefining, keep discussing and just keep going! :)
Wonder if they’ve seen MONA in Tasmania yet? http://mona.net.au/
Quite interesting comment…I like his view of the art world. Good art should be erotic.
