I went the Armory show today. 5 hours of being inspired, infuriated and depressed (not particularly in that order) by what I saw. I could have showed you things I liked, or things I hated, but I instead thought we could play a little game, Art/Not Art. I'll show you a picture, and you tell me whether it is art, or not. I will have the answers below....23456789101112131415161718192021222324252627
