Visual artThe new art of our time and of all the followers of the modern tradition in the art of England is a group of artists born in the late 20th century. The Young British Artists, or YBAs — also referred to as Brit artists and Britart — is the name given to a loose group of visual artists who first began to exhibit together in London, in 1988. Many of the artists graduated from the BA Fine Art course at Goldsmiths, in the late 1980s. It is impossible to answer the question: «What is so outstanding in the works of «young British artists»?Similarly unrealistic to describe in a few words the content of most of them, not venturing into a lengthy philosophical reasoning, which, most likely, will not correspond to the views of the author. In this case, the artist is trying to encourage the viewer to search for own interpretations, and their own philosophical Foundation of what he saw. However, he does not hesitate to provoke the emergence of the visitor negative emotions until the full sense of disgust.
