Quote from Rose in The Auction
Dorothy: I don't get it. Rose: This kind of art does nothing for me. Blanche: But you have to open your mind to new perceptions. This is nonrepresentational art. I work in a museum, so I understand these things. Now, for instance, this slash of color of red across the bottom, well, that represents the setting sun. And this jagged blue line, now, that signifies the ocean. Then this spot of orange up here in the corner, that stands for the planets and man's eternal struggle against nature and the elements. Rose: No, it doesn't. That's where I put my Creamsicle down this afternoon when I answered the phone. See? It rubs right off.
