This is in a category of photography that I call Crap Art.  It costs way 
too much, is written about in lyrical terms by "experts" that speak to 
your soul, has little to no craft in its making, and overall is just 
plain dull.  It is almost always available in giant sizes.

Museums buy it all the time.....  They place it in spots to attract 
attention to their astuteness in acquiring such exquisite art.

Save your money for a Rembrandt, Picasso, Dali, or Weston, Adams, etc. I 
say.
