Present day. Present time. aHaHaHaHaHa True Art is not this. This is not art.
This minotaur trope is not for you.
Today is a good day to die.[1]
True art is a tuna. True art is a tuba. True art slept with your sister and is having her babies.
True Art can't be not possibly different from anything that is not the opposite of any of these things:
- True Art is Ancient
- True Art is Angsty
- One Potato
- True Art is Foreign
- True Art is Incomprehensible
- Two Potato
- True Art is Offensive
- True Art Sticks It to the Man
- Three Potato
There is an attitude shown in some works that some art doesn't make a lot of sense and should be mocked as pretentious and elitist. It is spoken of ironically as 'True Art,' implying that it is neither true nor art.
Naturally, the characters doing the mocking are portrayed as Philistines by the artistic characters...if the artistic characters are allowed to say anything at all, that is. Philistines are not notably fair about such things.
Some categories of things which may be too subtle for these Philistines:
