A lovely, informative, thought provoking thread on abstract art’s history.

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

How did that happen?!

Well, the answer has something to do with this 3 million year old pebble...

Nothing like having a bug fly into your eye and then bruising your orbital when you reflexively jab your fingers at it, ostensibly for protection.
