Via Craft: comes the tastiest work of art you'll see all day, unless you work in a museum made of pies, which is the best job I've ever heard of. brb, gonna go bake a pie real quick.
I fucked it up. Pies are hard. So, yeah, that work of art up there. "I wonder if Van Gogh liked bacon," they ask. "Regardless, here's a recreation of his famous Starry Night painting, rendered in pork"
mmmmmmhmmmm, rendered in pork.
mmmmmmhmmmm, rendered in pork.
Actually, not really though. Bacon is OK and everything, but let's not turn it into a whole thing. D Jean Mustard put bacon OTL way back when the List was still a thing that we put things we didn't like on. Remember that? Kind of weird. Another example is that bacon thing I just mentioned one second ago, just in case you only read every other sentence of blog posts like I do.
- What do you think this particular piece says about the traditions of folk art?
- Or, like, the fetishization of food in American culture and our indifference to great works of art?
- Are we only capable of consuming art, literally, via our bacon sized mouth holes?
Resident bacon-as-a-thing hater D Jean Mustard follows up with some thoughts on bacon:
get a load of ol' bacon tits over here |
Bacon is completely out of hand and has been for like five years. I do wonder how that whole thing got its start though? For real, does a bacon lobby exist?
Bacon martini, bacon bloody mary, peanut butter pie with bacon, bacon band-aids, chocolate covered bacon, bacon Van Gogh. When will it end? Also, Luke, I think you are putting too much stock into this photo. My guess is someone was like 'Oh bacon. Let's do something else with it.'
It's just such a fucking stupid pop-culture thing. That's what we've been reduced to identifying ourselves with? Liking bacon? What happened to wearing Chuck Taylors and having shitty cartoon sailor birds tattooed on your tits?
