    people exhibiting art through fashion.

    Celebrities dressing up to promote crazy expensive brands in a event sponsored by Bezos. Yeah, that’s for sure the kind of art we should be cheering for.

      Whataboutism is an easy logical fallacy to fall into. Art being supported by rich patrons isn’t exactly a modern new thing. And brands are kind of inherent in the fashion industry anyway. This kind of art may not be my thing or your thing, but it’s still art, and still VERY different than demeaning gossip around gender stereotypes.
