Rembrandt, Danae

Rembrandt, Danae

Our name is Zarathustra. We are a cat. According to our assistant (named by ignoramuses as our “owner”) We are the best cat in the world. By the will of the gods, We have been relieved of our animal desires, therefore Our postprandial time is given to the reflections on lofty matters. We are so gracious in Our enjoyment of repasts.
And We are also very very fond of Arrt. Our main passion is to sit for the great artists. Only great artists can appreciate Our generous body and sublime soul.
What is Arrt? And how to treat it? This is Our tireless concern.

We, Zarathustra the Cat, decided to enlighten mankind and kindly explain to humans that the most contemporary art is to be found on the Internet. Curators are not interested in Internet memes yet, but We know that happens to all new trends in art, art institutions are usually very slow to react. But street art and graffiti recently found their way to galleries and museums. Now it’s the turn of the LOLcats.

Internet meme as Art
