I get what you say, but the impact the artwork has on any given individual is often strongly correlated with effort...
Saying "often" just adds to my point. Sometimes the art IS the effort and yes, it usually takes a ton of it to make truly beautiful art....but effort is just not a requirement. Less effort doesn't automatically equal worse art.
Art is also completely subjective and OP is presenting their opinion as a universal truth. If more effort makes you like something more, that's cool. But effort is not what makes art. Art is whatever makes you feel something.
There's Vines out there that I think is better art than the decades-long Sagrada Familia, which is (imo) the ugliest structure in the world.
I can't believe it, show me this vine which is better art than the Sagrada Familia
"Roadwork ahead? Yeah, I sure hope it does"
Pretty much any funny vine is better than the Sagrada Familia to me. I think it's gaudy and hideous.
If I were his God, I would now allow Gaudi into my kingdom of the afterlife after seeing that melting sandcastle abomination
Gaudy 😂 stop it you convinced me. This joke alone is better than the Sagrada Familia
I've never felt so strongly about a building positively or negatively. The first time I saw it was in a documentary with the host fawning over it and it drove me to rage.
Like if you took any one feature, it's all right. A building with an elaborate entrance is neat...but it's like design vomit. A million disconnected ideas mashed on top of each other.
"Too busy" would be putting it nicely. I fuckin hate the Sagrada Familia lol
