She’s so evil. XD
She just crossed the line.
Hahahaha! This really made me laugh!
Either what she said, or she could have invented a new type of art, which conists in modifying other artworks, and she will be paid millions of dollars to cut, smash and BURN anything she want.
Either that, or no one can tell the difference.
i would do the same.
Coming from someone who was hit by Isaac, she more or less did do the same!
Right in the middle of the museum?? Wouldn’t there be security cameras??? And they can test for fingerprints!
Sure, they can dust for fingerprints, but how many 12 year olds have their fingerprints on file at the police station?
Oh, wait, we’re talking about Larissa. Never mind…
When I was in High School my art class went to the Philedelphia Museum of Art. We sat around a circle of rocks on a wooden floor. Turns out that circle of rocks cost 35,000! And that was back in the 80’s…
Next act: Larissa singing a rap song about being an Art Gangsta!
Since we are in a Larisa artie ark, I have a question. Way back in strip “0126 – Secrets” Larisa alluded to the fact that “We all have our secrets” and in the comments it was stated that Larisa’s complete story would be revealed over the next two or three years. That was in January of 2010 and my question is this. Are we getting closer to the “Secrets” of which she spoke being revealed or did I miss them along the way? Not that I have a long memory, but I just finished reading the run of the comic and am very curious why she knocked that container out of poor Woo’s startled fingers.

Actually… That’s genius! You could TOTALLY make that an art form! Or, if not destroying the genuine articles, destroy fascimalies of modern art, maybe leaving a copy of a classical piece untouched at the centre! Brilliant!

A fire once happened near one of the temples of my religion. It burned ALL THE WAY AROUND the temple, but the building itself remained untouched. I think it happened quite recently, like maybe a year ago or something. I was reminded of this when you said that bit about leaving a piece untouched at the center.
I don’t entirely get what this means unless Hurricane Isaac was overestimated or something and actually did almost no damage or it simply moved stuff a few yards east or something, but I still can’t help wanting to laugh.
@ illeatyourself:
It’s referring to how modern art is insanely expensive yet really weird, so by moving one thing out of place, she’s effectively turned a multi-million dollar piece of artwork into just a bunch of cans on the floor.
I doubt that cost 7.6 billion dollars.
Hurricane Larisa.
@ Random Guy:
…which is why it’s a joke, not a factual assertion. =P
The way everything (including the speech bubbles) are set up in the last panel it looks like those 2 cans are going to be crushed while the rest look on. An Improvement.
@ arkie:
I don’t think we’ve missed any secrets along the way but I also don’t think an arc about Larisa and art is going to be revealing secrets. I know that she knocked that container out of Woo’s hands because it was medicine of some kind but we still don’t know what for. It is likely to be for something important but what exactly, we still don’t know and probably won’t know for a while.
Watch out, we got a badass over here!
It deeply saddens me that Larisa is probably right. )-: A bunch of lame cans, costing as much as so much human suffering… Ugh!
@ Moogle:
I know this story line won’t be revealing secrets, but it brought the secrets to mind nevertheless and I thought I would ask. You know curiosity, the cat, and all that jazz.
@ Argondr (guest):
that’s the job for Larisa and me XD
To the museum itself, it’s like Larisa moved the sun closer to the Earth.
I would repost my coment on the western Art being a concept elaborated by the burgoise in the wake of XVIII century, but that has somehow become pointless.
Bravo for Larisa
SHE FIXED IT!
Honestly, I don’t get modern art. I could melt a bunch of Tim cans together and have it be worth millions of dollars. Fifty years ago, if you wanted to create a million dollar master piece, you had to spend weeks carving a statue that looks like some guy sitting on a rock resting his chin on his hand. Now a days all you gotta do is lay a bunch of tin cans on the floor.
@ Dane:
Probably more than you think…parents would fingerprint their kids in case of kidnap. They did for me.

I love you for doing these museum pieces. You know your stuff!
Oh, Eva. I doubt she’s rolling in her grave. 😛
@ Kite Tenjou:
Eva Hesse was one of the biggest names of 20th century fine art. That’s more than fifty years ago. Maybe you’re thinking before 19th century? 😛
Btw, most of these artists were absolutely dirt poor in their lifetimes. The reason these pieces are revered today is because they talk about new perceptions in art, culture, society, and humanity.
Er, that is, 1950s-70s.
Hey be a little more thoughtful Louisiana go’t hammered
@ Kite Tenjou:
Ah, yes. Who can forget the representative, clearly-illustrated art of Piet Mondrian and Pablo Picasso.
*insert horror music here*
@ Kite Tenjou:
“I could melt a bunch of Tim cans together and have it be worth millions of dollars.”
eh, not millions. because nobody knows you. this is why im not arguing in favour of the ludicrious prices, because it’s all true.
“Fifty years ago, if you wanted to create a million dollar master piece, you had to spend weeks carving a statue that looks like some guy sitting on a rock resting his chin on his hand.”
spladle pointed this out above… 12 years ago… but to reiterate: the thinker was not fifty years ago. repetition nineteen I was not nowadays.
“Now a days all you gotta do is lay a bunch of tin cans on the floor.”
the real thing isn’t tin cans, bought from a store. it’s “paint and papier-mâché on aluminum screening”. 19 of the blighters. therefore: not lazy. confirmed trve kvlt effortcore.
