im glad someone finally started this thread. let me start by saying i side with princeofcats completely. i do not find bjork to be a musical genius nor a fashion icon. ive never been impressed with her attempts at being ironic. i think if something looks awful, it looks awful no matter what artistic view you look at it with. thats when art really pisses me off. i love avant garde but i think there should always be an aesthetic element to every piece of art and bjork to me is complete disregard for aesthetics. art can offend, it can challenge, it can be disturbing, but there is always a balance and a rhythm to it. artsy kids are just eating it up because ohmigod its so unusual, such disregard for rules...yeah and its still ugly.
