Money laundering schemes. No seriously, that has been my theory for a while now as to why rich people will give absurd amounts of money for dumb shit on a canvas. Either being rich doesn't mean you're actually smart, or it's a big ruse

>uncanny valley
shows you don't know wtf the word means
figurines are not creepy because they stay in proportion with the original design sheet. if you want the uncanny valley examples then it would be like pic related, and I'd even argue that cosplay (based on stylized cartoons) can feel 'weird' and cringe to some, even if the cosplay is objectively flawless.

Also
Contemporary Art = Money laundering and other such shinanigans
Fine Art = Mostly idiocy and status

There is a small fraction of artists in both these fields who do not fit those descriptions. More so in fine art than contemporary.
