The image above is of the painting «Interchange» by Willem de Kooning. It was sold for 300 million USD in 2015. It was painted in 1955 and classified as «abstract expressionism» by the «experts» (good grief the experts!). The painting, oil on canvas measuring 200,7 x 175,3 cm, hangs in the private collection of Kenneth C. Griffin, an American hedge fund manager…
I reckon that having been sold for that incredible amount of US dollars one can say that it is the best abstract art painting in existence today. Right? Well, no… When I taught art to pre-schoolers I saw many compositions that would rival this one, for sure. But, beauty, and worth, is in the eye of the beholder, and Mr. Griffin beheld this painting and bought it, it set a record, and now it is the highest paid abstract work, of the ones in the market for there are some in museums that will never be sold and we will never know how much they would sell for.
Reference «Bad» abstract art, or what I think is bad, well…

Definitely not the best abstract art piece, but I wouldn’t mind giving it a go for 300 million dollars! 🤗😂

I guess it’s whatever someone is willing to pay. I wouldn’t have done it.

I think you’re right, who can argue with someone who is willing to pay?
