Is the mere concept of Nokia justified as art?

So its one thing if some dude makes a bunch of art, has a show, gets a sponsor to tell people and provides some free booze and some music....right?
Correct.

now how bout this for a piece of performance art....or a quality example of the growth of Post Nihilism in our society.

so take that art show concept and flip it around! Woah. so you got a promoter who has some shit they want to sell, like cell phones, and one of the marketing dudes comes up with a way to disguise the advertisement in the form of an art show.
(a discussion of the post-nihilistic qualities of this piece, where the subject is a
distortion of itself while obscuring the truth in the background.
we see here a creation of a new, subjective morality)
pretty lame, eh?
but majorly enjoyable.
wait...
except for the actors roaming around being filmed on camera phones and others telling me to get out of the way or be quiet at an art party. so fuck Nokia....
(example of how the art becomes the subject and the subject becomes art. this woman is an actor, notice the scene/take clapper thinggy in the background)

but maybe true art is supposed to elicit emotions of anger...

ok, what a crock of shit.

(she thought she was going to be in a magazine. too bad. at least you made it on here sweetheart. she did lipsync "i think we're alone now" really well, however)
