1) Frida Kahlo. Mediocre, did not know how to draw or paint. At best a naïve artist, but hardly even there. It is hard for me to even call her a bad artist, because I tremble to use the word «artist» when referring to her. However, since her death they have converted her into the «queen of merchandising».

Need I say more about this supposed artist that never added anything to art history? (Sorry if you are a fan. I am hot here to discourage you. This is simply my opinion).
2) Joan Miró. Boring to the extreme. He never experimented, he never searched. He did not even mix colours. What for? Buy the tubes, they already come mixed and then «create» a series of paintings using simply the colours (primary ones) as they come out of the tube. Finish series in ten minutes. If his family had not opened the Joan Miró foundation where would all those canvases be? I suspect collecting dust in some attic or basement. However, I do believe he was a smashing good sort of chap.

3 A + B) (A)Yoko Ono. If she had not married John Lennon (who she did her best to seduce back in the late 1960’s), nobody would have ever heard of her. And that would have been hunky dory. The only thing she does worse than art is singing, composing and performing. Cannot say anything else about this woman, except that she may actually also be Yayoi Kusama, there is a likeness, no? That allows me to segway to #3 (B), Yayoi Kusama. Great curtain designs for the home of a blind man…


Let me be clear on this very important point. I am judging only the art that these artists have brought to the world. I do not know these people personally therefore I make no judgements on their personality, lifestyle or anything like that. It is nothing personal. If you are a fan of any of these or of any of the ones in the forthcoming part 2, I am so sorry, but this is my opinion based upon a lifetime of study in art and art history. And I also base these opinions on common sense and good taste.
CHEERS
A great start to your list of useless artist’s Francisco! 😁

2…in my 20’s I really dug the ugliness of Khalo’s work, but Haring’s simple doodles just inspire me…can’t explain it but I just really dig em. I have varying tastes in artists but I do appeciate a lot of underground comix cartoonists, European Ilustrators & painters whose work featured in Heavy Metal Magazine, and a few pop artists.

Phenomenal! I do not dislike all of Kahlo’s work, but most of it I can do without it. Harring’s doodles are like the ones kids make on their school notebooks, and should be worth just that… but I do not like his statements and anti-establishment spiel when he tried his best to be picked up by the same establishment…

Finally… someone brave enough to day it with their chest. I’ve often wondered what the fascination was, but I’m no artist. Can’t disagree with you, Francisco.

Personally to me, conceptual artists aren’t artists. Take Invisible Art by Yves Klien as an example and the rich idiots willing to pay for absolutely nothing.
oh i was wrong I like 2 of the 10 worst artists you posted, one of which is an inspiration.

Thank you Matt. You are right. I would place conceptual art in the more or less theatre category, and invisible art in the rubbish bin. Which two are an inspiration?
