    Conceptual art is an enigma, like poetry. It takes time to be understood but I prefer when the authot explain it becouse in that case art become an excuse to comunicate in a world without comunication. This is what i think.. obviously

    I watched this twice. John Roberts says nothing. It seems to me to be a bunch of words strung together. If you look deep into his eyes, I think you'll see that he knows he ain't got nott'n.

    Its all subjective. In relation to this photograph though i think its what it is. It just says to me something i would expect from a learner, it doesn't push any boundaries or even say its up to a certain standard that conveys a sense of art or professionalism. I like things that make you think or are creative and i like very good traditional, technical stuff also. I don't like the wannabe 'turnip' prize for art types. That think putting up something made from rare amazonian tree monkeys sh*t is very different and therefore 'high art'. Thats why people get fed up with art and photography that doesn't convey a feeling. If people think...'ow my 5 year old could do that'...they tend to dismiss it and to be honest if there is no skill or technical ability to it, who can blame them? Whats big at the moment is 'conceptual photography'. But 80% of it is amateurist and boring to me. Say that and you are considered a 'ludite'...small minded people then these conceptualists are...you could say then?? I think the best photographers are the ones who see the picture in the first place and its being able to see something different that stands you apart from the norm!!

    9:54 and on. If you have to talk so much to explain your work and still you’re not really saying anything at all, maybe your work just doesn’t speak for itself. Or maybe the whole concept is the act of overexplaining the piece.

    Some people know more about some things than other people, in this case Lucy Soutter and John Roberts know a lot about photography in conceptual art. It doesn't mean their definition is correct but I think it's worth listening to, don't you?
