    Is this Art?

    Two lactating women spraying their milk into each others' mouths. Is this art?

    The responsible party is recently deceased Spanish (Spain) director, Bigas Luna:

    Re: Is This Really Art??? Come On!

    From my perception, this is the "Art of PLAY or to use your terminology "Frolicking". I always thought that art and beauty was in the"eye of the beholder". But I do admit that some famous art from centuries ago, reflected the decadence of that age, and I perceived it as beautiful. Could it be that decadence has been part of every age, but we finally have someone to tell us that it's not really art at all?

    We are fortunate to have an authority on what is art, and what is not. It's too bad we had to wait so long....

    This is clearly an example of how art has deteriorated in contemporary culture. Art reflects the soul of civilization and this denotes the decadence of our age.

    How can two lactating women, frolicking at the beach, using their breasts as if they were water guns and toys to play with, ever be considered art by ANY stretch of ANYONE'S imagination???

    Simply observe for yourselves, below. I rest my case.

    My commentary is facetious. But I'm glad you contributed your opinion, with which I agree.

    Here is another example of boundary pushing art:
