- What is that?
- You tell me.
:14:34
Carcass by Soutine. 1925.
:14:39
- It's not on the syllabus.
- No, it's not.
:14:44
Is it any good?
:14:51
Come on, ladies.
There's no wrong answer.
:14:56
There's also no textbook
telling you what to think.
:15:00
It's not that easy, is it?
:15:03
All right. No. It's not good.
:15:06
In fact, I wouldn't even call it art.
It's grotesque.
:15:09
Is there a rule against
grotesque art?
:15:11
I think there's something
aggressive about it...
:15:15
...and erotic.
- To you, everything is erotic.
:15:18
- Everything is erotic.
- Girls.
:15:20
- Aren't there standards?
- Of course.
:15:23
Otherwise a tacky velvet painting
could be equated to a Rembrandt.
:15:26
My Uncle Ferdie has two tacky velvet
paintings. He loves those clowns.
:15:30
There are standards, technique,
composition, color, even subject.
:15:36
So if you're suggesting
that rotted side of meat is art...
:15:39
...much less good art,
then what are we going to learn?
:15:43
Just that.
:15:45
You have outlined our new syllabus,
Betty. Thank you.
:15:48
What is art?
What makes it good or bad?
:15:51
And who decides?
:15:54
Next slide, please.
:15:57
Twenty-five years ago someone
thought this was brilliant.
