> Why is the art of NFTs just so dang ugly? -- The folks who are steering all of this, the guys who are in charge, or the guys who go out and make something like Bored Ape Yacht club, like they're just hollow inside. They don't understand art. They don't understand culture. They don't watch television. They don't watch movies. They don't read books. They don't read comics.
A comment like reveals the interviewer and interviewee have not looked very far into the NFT art space. Like seeing a Jeff Koons Balloon Dog sale and saying that all art is hollow, and all artists have no culture. The highest selling art does not represent all art.
