  1. The music...WHY
  2. Unwatchable with the dance-club soundtrack.
  3. Thank you very much for this video, sir! During the first minutes, I began to doubt my choice in studying the arts but halfway through your video, I found myself completely lost into the explanations of you and the artists of the works.
    Subscribing!!
  4. Why all the Marxist claptrap?
  5. Formalism believes that instead of form and content, we ought to speak of form and material. Form is the unique way in which a work is created. That is its real message. The work's material, like facts, ideas, etc., is important but not predominant. Aristotle, too, considered form as the realization of material.
  6. Modernism started in the 1860s and the enlightenment began between 1660 and 1700. Two fallacies found within the first 59 seconds of watching this. Therefore I will not finish watching this.
