Clip_from_Colbert_Report_Feb_12th

Two quotes I will take away from this clip come from David Ross, former director of the Whitney Museum.
3:52 - “Works of art are essentially a function of intention. If you intend to make a work of art, it may not be very good, but your intention trumps everything.”
4:09 - “It starts at the artist’s intention. It begins there. No one else can tell someone it’s art until the artist says, ‘I have made a work of art.’”

Also: Ed Colbert made a good point about the “essence” of the original photograph.
