Why is Modern Art so Bad?

Prager University and Robert Florczak presents: For two millennia, great artists set the standard for beauty. Now those standards are gone. Modern Art is a competition between the ugly and the twisted; the most shocking wins. What happened? How did the beautiful come to be reviled and bad taste come to be celebrated? Renowned artist Robert Florczak explains the history and the mystery behind this change and how it can be stopped and even reversed. Also have a look at BBC2’s Why Beauty Matters (VIDEO) with Philosopher Roger Scruton. It’s a fascinating provocative essay on the importance of beauty in the arts and in our lives. Enjoy!
