🎉 Breaking news: Yet another art award nobody asked for, won by something called "Requiem for an Exit"—a title as pretentious as it is forgettable. 🙄 Congratulations, Thomas Kvam and Frode Oldereid, for creating a 2.30-minute magnum opus that will surely be the talking point of absolutely no one. 🏆

"J. Hoberman's latest epic ⚡️ is a dense tome of '60s #nostalgia, guaranteed to make you feel like you're stuck in a time loop of pretentious art 🤯 and existential crises 🌀. Because nothing screams 'modern' like a book that uses more paper than a small forest 🌳 and references a play no one remembers. 📚🤷‍♂️"
