Picasso said, "We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth, at least the truth that is given us to understand."

And some liars are more mean-spirited and self-centered than others. Artists are often egotistical bastards who beat and slash their wives, and disown and kick their children, who have adoring syncophants shouting hosannas for their "humanity" and "insight."

Besides, the Jonas Brothers are not artists. They are entertainers. Unlike "fine artists," they have to CARE about how other people perceive their work. They can't say "F*** you, I'm a f***ing artist," and make a living. Most of the people hung in museums DO say that.
