&gt;Isn&#x27;t a lot of art basically bullshit? Just take a look at modern art paintings<p>No.<p>&gt;and how much they sell for.<p>Perhaps.  I guess it depends on the perspective you&#x27;re approaching it from.  As a use of capital resources in a world of crushing and grinding poverty, I say yes.<p>As a potential investment: if the someone is willing to pay more in the future then it&#x27;s not bullshit.
