Pollock Would Be Insulted

Abstract art seems to be losing its significance as time advances while it likewise gains ridicule. What makes me say this? You mean besides the fact that any normal person's reaction to seeing abstract art is, "I'm pretty sure I made this when I was five, what's it doing in a museum?" Well, I suppose this could suffice as some concrete evidence:

That's exactly what it looks like...that is, if it looks like a napkin designed with an elegant frame around the edges and what seems to be drippings of sauces and whatnot in the center. The idea of this legitimate product is to wear it tucked into the collar of your shirt, so should something like gravy, ketchup, or dressing drip from your food as you're eating, it'll make some opaque designs within the borders of the frame to make it look like actual minimalist or abstract art. While it is indeed a very clever and witty concept, could it also be interpreted as the mocking of a very experimental and emotional field of art? Products like these play off of the commonly held belief that artists who specialize in abstract and other inventive styles don't put forth too much effort to create their works to display or sell. It's not an entirely radical claim to make, yet some appreciation for the thinking and emotional processes that these artists travel through while creating these pieces may help the rest of society understand what makes abstract art more than just splatters of dinner residue on an opaque cloth.
