This picture is an obvious example of what I call "Bourgeois Aesthetics", in which the term 'bourgeois' doesn't refer to some marxistic theory*, but to some pale and cowardly executed form of art practice & consumption, and 'aesthetics' to some totally outdated idea of 'beauty', which seems to be still commonly practiced on all art institutions: fag-melancholic-expressionism; the adoption of real suffering (which is strictly noumenal) by it's hypocritical empirical counter form, introduced in order to neutralize the former. Suffering in it’s most concrete (melancholic) form is not meant to show suffering, but to disguise it.
*which seems now to be fully and successfully expelled from 'the realm of truth', to which 'the capitalists' seem to have a monopoly.
