Art Twerks
The Home of Serious Satire
Art Twerks is dedicated to artful satire in the world of art: regaling you with various offerings related to art – and on occasion, other fields. And although we can’t promise you will attain a higher state of consciousness, you may at least be inspired to look at the world around you in a different way.
Art Twerks offers you a satirical take on various aspects of the fine-art world, with some meaningful stuff thrown in just for spite. Our aim is to entertain, provoke, and illuminate; and perhaps even to inspire you to support the essential, life-enhancing, soul-feeding work of artists.

“Life is a blank canvas, and you need to throw all the paint on it you can.” ~ Danny Kaye
It’s almost too easy to decry the crass, money-driven state of today’s marketplace, or the cynical, less-than-inspiring “art product” commonly on offer by those for whom the real art of the art market is the marketing. Our pages serve, instead, as sincere reminders of what art is for – and are much more fun.
