Sorry John but a lot of abstract art is not good.
Abstract art started as a push back after the invention of the camera took away work from artists.
I'm not saying it's all bad.
Sometimes it's alive, but a lot of it is dead repetition in randomness. Artists copy each other, it's not always "inspired".
Sometimes the ones you put in your articles are the dead ones.
Perhaps you have a bias having been close to the community.
It's just like being a fan of muscle cars, some of those cars were shit but have a following.
"I believe humanity's foray into fiction began with the breakdown of the bicameral mind, and the insertion of meaningl “Belief is the death of intelligence. As soon as one believes a doctrine of any sort, or assumes certitude, one stops thinking about that aspect of existence.” - Robert Anton Wilsoness symbols in between the subject and the seer. In short, back when people used pictographic alphabets, we were limited to discussing things we could actually see in the real world. The invention of phonemic alphabets like this one, which are comprised not of representative pictures but of meaningless letters, provides the opportunity to invent an endless stream of non-sense, the greatest of these being spelled with just a single capital letter."

Parry, your hunch is correct. The imperialist fabulizing brought to you by Peck for HBO is no accident. Raoul Peck is a counterrevolutionary, enemy of the people of Haiti, whose treachery set the table for the coup and invasion by Canada, France and USA in 2004 that overthrew Haitian democracy. https://haitisolidarity.net/voices-from-haiti/jafrikayiti/
