It's this comment made in response to the really dreary article that made me laugh.

Why does mention of portraiture make me snort with derision?
Because you're a stupid git? An intellectual fraud? An eyeless buffoon, parading around in your ignorance like it was a frilly coat? Take your pick, ya boob. Sorry to burst your ridiculous bubble, but "contemporary art" is whatever the hell contemporary artists choose to make. The Artist leads, the (in this case ignorant) critic follows (or doesn't, as the case may be).
What a ******!
