#20: Art Is Subjective

In a playful experiment in 2017, a group of students decided to test the boundaries of modern art at a local gallery. They placed a simple pineapple in an empty exhibit space to see if visitors would perceive it as art. Astonishingly, when they returned four days later, they found the pineapple not only still occupying the space but also shielded under a protective glass case.

We can only imagine their surprise at this unexpected turn of events that highlights the subjective nature of art and sparks a humorous commentary on the sometimes perplexing world of contemporary art exhibitions. The incident demonstrated that art can be a matter of perception and interpretation, even when it involves a common fruit like a pineapple.
