I never quite get the "bitterness."

We obviously observe many "levels of ART, Art, art"
from galleries full of Kitch
through art fairs
and Fine Art Fairs
and coop galleries
to galleries and museums
full of the highest forms
of Art.

Those who frequent the best galleries and museums
really don't have that much difficulty
determining why the work hangs where it does;
or where it fits
in the history of Art.
