Why is it that people feel the need to compete in artistic matters?
--insert crazy rant here--
Ridiculous.
Technical ability aside -- any art in and of itself can only be as 'good' or 'bad' as the viewer/listener who is taking it in. There will be things that appeal to us in some primordial way, and then there are things that we are unappreciative of. There are things you might like 'the best' but it's entirley subjective and often due to socialized standards that were put onto you from your parents and upbringing. The art itself is something that is neither good nor bad; perceptions and life experiences are what filter all art through our own little prism... whether that is good or bad remains to be seen; as the last man(or woman) alive will be the real final arbiter of what 'fine' art is or was and only they'll be in a position to say who WAS the BEST.
