The Art of the Drunken Wineglass
The drunken wineglass has turned into an artist, with the wine as the paint. If one
looks closely, the drunken wineglass has painted a woman.
Although it seems absurd, art remains art. It is not derived from knowledge -
at least, this is one school of thought (pardon the pun). Thus, art can be created by
anyone!
"I can do something others can't, but I'm not sure that I'd call it exactly ... art,"
reasoned the drunken wineglass, referring to the image of a woman with a
wineglass in hand lying before him. She did not materialize out of thin air, of
course. She was created through clever design; but that is probably why it would
not be called Real Art.
