Why is the Broadway boogie woogie so famous? I get that the title really suits the art work, but why is it such a famous painting? Why is it so popular? Even his Compositions with red blue and yellow are imitated worldwide in fashion, and art. I just don't get it.
Paintings, like fashion, can sometimes be popular for reasons that escape most people. All it takes is the right mention in a few mass produced publications like the new york times, etc, and then suddenly every newspaper has to run a story on it, or they missed out.
To me, that looks like colorful spittle, layed out in geometric patterns...to others, it's art, inspiring, breathtaking, and wonderful. No sense in it, art just "is".
