The new ironic art,

Or the pontification of nothing in particular. Spreading through the galleries like a tiny, efficient and simple little virus.
It is the perfect allegory of our times: selfish, not that rigorous, and less informed than the preceding generation. It doesn’t require much thought. It abuses, distorts, and reduces the concept of metaphor. Better described as “TVesque.” Yuppies love it, and it's perfect for coctail parties!
Just like junk food, it will give you a quick jolt of the throat, but leave you with an empty stomach. Just like the tiny, efficient and simple little virus it is, it has already crossed the oceans, feeding on greed (and need), and it is starting to affect major organs.
Not easily recognized.
Or is it?…
