Rothko’s Untitled. I don’t like abstract expressionism but he’s probably the technical height of it from how much work actually went into that.

If they made that exact painting (instead of Rothko) and walked into whatever gallery that is looking to sell it or even just put it on display, they’d get turned away.
Sure, but because it’s now a 55 year-old idea. If I plagiarise a book written in 1969 and submit it to a publisher they’d also reject it. If you submit a genuinely new idea to an avant-garde gallery then you wouldn’t be turned away.
That’s true, but he’s saying that 99.9% of people living in 1969 would also have been tuned away
That’s why I said instead of Rothko.
they’d put it up if the CIA was paying for it
