I don't understand Pollock, either ~ thanks for the spelling correction, Q, by the way ~ but I admit that I don't understand visual art in general, and I accept the judgement of others that his work is worthwhile, somehow. I do know that "the average two-year-old" could never truly duplicate what he was doing, whatever that was.

However, I do more-or-less understand Warhol. It's not about how faithfully he was able to depict the can of soup, it's about how his choices ~ of subject matter, of technique, genre, etc. ~ reflect a modern understanding of the big new interconnected world we live in.

Not everyone is going to understand, and not everyone who understands really wants to look at the stuff every day. So what? Think of it like TV: if you don't dig it, change the channel.
