People bitch and whine about ugly shit, buddy. Don't know what else to tell you.

Abstract art sucks. Never been a fan of it.
As for the design of the new terminal, it's a simple rehashed design of previous terminal models found domestically and throughout the world. Certainly an improvement to the current terminal.

Whenever I see the works of Jackson Pollock or Mark Rothko, it makes me want to vomit. Great art should have meaning, should be understood and most importantly should be extremely hard to create by an average person. Picaso's earlier work for example was great and then he tried to reinvent himself with that cubism shit.

Its an airport in the taint of the midwest bruh

I guess it depends on what you want of your travel. I fly pretty frequently and just want to get in and out as soon as possible. I haven’t been to KCI in a while, but I would imagine it would be pretty boring to have a long layover there compared to some of the other airports that have huge shopping areas that make you feel like you are in a mall. Many of them have similar artwork inside, although I haven’t paid enough attention to which pieces are at specific airports.

KCUnited 04-10-2021 03:45 PM

I haven't paid a ton of attention since I don't live there, but I thought the crux was its falling apart and its a security blindspot if anyone threatening was paying the least bit of attention. Plus airlines are like please bring this thing up until at least the 90s for us to continue servicing you.

I could be way off though.

Rothko and Pollock ARE extremely hard to re-create.

That's like saying any average person can be a famous photographer. How hard can it be? You just push a button!

If it was paid by taxes, and I don't know if it was, it basically cost everyone in the KC area $2.15. I think that is okay to beautify a public space.

Actually, both have been copied and sold for millions. There is an interesting show on Netflix about it. But your point is correct, they were very unique.

Y’all ****ers will bitch about anything.

I guarantee every single time a new airport has been built in this country they’ve set aside money for art/aesthetics. Get over it.

From what I've read, no tax payer money and it's paid by the airlines.
