Without art, what's the meaning?
Shareholder value
Calling graphic design like the image implies for art is far too generous.
Ok go make your own 🤷♂️
My ability to make this has no influence on whether or not it's art.
Just because a graphic designers product is visual does not make it art. Art is worthwhile to loose yourself in, it inspires emotion, it makes you think. Graphic design like this does nothing of the sort.
The real subtext here is that if you actually tried your hand at it, you would see there is actually some artistic understanding that is required to do good graphic design work.
Art comes in many forms. I’m sorry you’re so close minded and gatekeep-y about it.
I don't know about you, but this graphic inspires emotion in me. That emotion is anger at how little our society values art.
That said, be careful with that line of thinking. That's exactly the sort of stuff people say about modern art.
Keep your shitty opinion to yourself, I fap to unixporn
I was thinking about the "artist 71%"
Yes, this meme is more than just suggesting that the design of the poll is art
No, It's implying the person making the graphic is an artist.
Artists make art, it's kind of the definition of being an artist...
Artists also take shits, that doesn't mean taking a shit is art.
Salvador Dali designed the original Chupa Chups logo. Rockwell drew food for magazine ads.
Artists gotta eat.
