The Sick Nike Art Collection

Want to see a truly sick and vile art collection? Take a look at the paintings and other artworks collected by Mark Parker, the CEO of Nike. We have discussed his sadistic art tastes before, but the collection is even more disgusting when seen in its totality.

You have to wonder how a company like Disney would place Parker on its board of directors? This is a company that runs amusement theme parks tailor-made for children.  When someone’s taste in art runs toward violence and depravity against children, as well as cannibalism and child sacrifice, you have to wonder why Disney views him as a legitimate candidate for its board. This not only seems bizarre, but frankly, its creepy as all hell. More from TestingTheNarrative.

For the Love of Tape

Sarah DiNardo doesn’t like calling herself an artist, but her creations — rolled from countless yards of tape — evoke everything from barnacles to bones. Boston-based DiNardo talks of her enduring love of tape in this video by Gnarly Bay Productions, a Rhode Island filmmaking team led by Dan Riordan and Dana Saint. “There’s nothing like a fresh sticker when you pull it off of something,” she says, “and as soon as it loses that crispness, I can’t be bothered with it … Everyone has their vice, and I guess my vice just happens to be rolling tape.” H/T Mercedes Buck

Nutball Scrawls on Painting

A 28-year-old woman associated with the 9/11 Truther movement has defaced Eugene Delacroix’s painting “Liberty Leading the People.” The iconic 1830 work, commemorating the French Revolution, is believed to have served as the inspiration for the Statue of Liberty.

The woman struck while the painting was on loan to the Louvre-Lens Museum, an art museum in northern France that often displays works from the Louvre’s collection. She used a red permanent marker to scrawl a Truther message on the painting. Police apprehended her, but prosecutors have yet to release her identity.

Jail time is too cushy for this vandal. She should be air-dropped into the Sahara, wherever the Jihadi insurgents are now holed up, and forced to fend for herself among her own kind.

Shake Up the Art Establishment

The most incisive and iconoclastic art critic of our time, Camille Paglia, sits down with InstaVision‘s Glenn Reynolds to discuss her new book Glittering Images: A Journey Through Art from Egypt to Star Wars. Among the topics covered:

  • Why do many Americans hold modern and abstract art in such open contempt?
  • Have academics put art in a straightjacket by denying the vital importance of classical imagery, notably sacred and religious imagery, while promoting second-rate, secular, “shock” art?
  • Is George Lucas our greatest living artist?
  • Has the Democratic Party strayed from its roots by becoming bloated and statist, pushing a form of big government that threatens our liberties and personal rights?

Paglia is always entertaining as well as provocative, so even if you’re a cultural boob, there are some real nuggets of thought to glean from this interview. H/T PJTV
