Ugh! Modern art is a 'con', says Harris It used be the royals, especially Charles who could be relied upon to signal the chagrine about modern design, now Rolf is at it. The crux of his argument seems to be that people won't visit art galleries because they don't understand contemporary art and it frightens them away. But surely the only way to get people understand pieces such as Tracy Emin's 'Bed' (not all that great but not worth singling out for attack) is to get them to see them in their natural 'habitat'?
