That title is a garden path sentence! I was like beer can artwork? Is that grammar correct?

Yea, headline writers are often… Casual.

It should be something like “Beer-can art” with it without the quotes (I’m not sure, really).

Sounds like museums and art centers aren’t your thing.

i love museums and art centers.

the great thing about art is everyone is free to define it how they want, and no one is wrong.

“art” to you, “garbage” to me

To be fair, I feel like that’s kind of what the artist was hoping for. Would you be reading about his piece if some Philistine with no concept of what constitutes art hadn’t thrown it away?
