Urinal Named As Most Influencial Art
A porcelain urinal is the most influential work of modern art, according to a survey released Wednesday.
According to art expert Simon Wilson "it reflects the dynamic nature of art today and the idea that the creative process that goes into a work of art is the most important thing — the work itself can be made of anything and can take any form."
It's a freaking toilet!

It's not the work of art, it's the concept behind it that is / has been influential.
I agree that it is the most influential work of modern art.
Perhaps it's because I did History of Art that I 'get' it.
