hemorroids make me uncomfortable does that make them art as well

I'm sure someone like Tracy Emin would put your haemorrhoids on display. Perhaps you should write to her?

It is possible that the art is intentionally resembling London mayor hair style:

The object in question looks like an eyesore to me but I do seem to recall that the Eiffle Tower was, at the time of it's construction, considered an eyesore by the French people. It was scheduled to be torn down but when the appointed time came there was an outcry to preserve it, so it is still here today.

Somehow I don't think this new thing will be so lucky.

I don't get Piccaso, but Klee. Then again, my sis and I never agreed.

I once attended a local art show wherein one of the paintings receiving an award looked like an old paint rag I had and used when cleaning paint brushes and my airbrushed I used to paint model airplanes.
