Sometimes I think every piece of art that's ever existed is just a cry for help that missed its mark.

Yeeouch!

Which is not to say you have no point...

I'm not sure all of them missed.

Replace "help" with "attention" and, yes.

I suspect that's a better definition, if a little broad. Take Damien Hirst or the Chapman brothers, for example: I'm not saying their work necessarily qualifies as art, nor that they don't need help, but it certainly counts as attention-seeking.

I think art can be a celebration as well.

Yyyeah. I was in a...weird mood last night. I agree with you, I just get cynical.

[scanner_darkly]

That was me, by the way.

True, wise, and sad.
