“The premier collection of good art done bad.”

Huge Magazine’s Thrift Store Art Gallery features “bad” art found in thrift stores. They call it The premier collection of good art done bad. The pieces in the PSB Gallery of Thrift Store Art have been displayed in different galleries across the country and earned their collector many interviews. The big question seems to be, does this stuff count as art? Are people genuinely interested in it, or just paying attention because they think of it as a joke? We know our opinion, but what’s yours?
