art criticism 101 for fuckheads and other less obnoxious fandom residents

[cimorene]

after i get off work at 9:30 today i am going to work on an art criticism lesson, with illustrations, for the edification of the general populace.  because, like, there was much snarky and rude point-missing in that recent wank where aja thought the HELLOCROTCH picture of dan radcliffe was child sploitation, and suddenly the hp fandom ran a shortage of high horses from all the people wanting to look down and say 'no one made you look!11!' and also 'kids sit like that all the time so if you found it remotely suggestive you must be a sicko.  like i'm surprised :snif:!!!1'

not that i think it WAS childsploitation.  i mean, it was suggestive, but, i think, not disturbingly so; plus, i don't find suggestive pictures of pubescent people to be disturbing.  he's pubescent, problem solved.  and suggestive is not the same as porn.
