No, that's called Godwin's Law. Look it up.

Godwin's Law: A convenient way to extricate yourself from an argument when you know that your position is idiotic.

The artist as reduced to mere copying machine. Although he displays an undeniable technical facility, I am not terribly impressed.

It may not be great art but it was fun to watch.

I'll grant you that. The video is a more entertaining piece of artwork than the image he's recording.

I'm glad to hear that. You should see him draw a water droplet or a crumpled piece of paper.

You think Jackson Pollock would get 20$ for his pissed on paintings these days??

Try multiplying a bit. His No. 5, (1948) sold for 140 million back in 2016. He is a very good painter if you can get beyond the a five year old could do that mentality (no, a five year old couldn't do that)

I think that was Andy Warhol, not Jackson Pollock. And the answer is 'yes', I think they would go for more than $20 at auction.

Are you talking about Piss Christ? That was a 1987 photograph by Andres Serrano.
