Art students can't tell grandmaster from animal.
Abstract art grandmasters score like class D amateurs
Hawley-Dolan and Winner had asked the art students to compare paintings by
abstract artists with paintings made by a child or by an animal. In 67% of the
cases, art students said that the painting by a renowned artist is better. I
compare this with the winning probability of the chessplayers of different
ratings. I conclude that the great artists score on the level of class D
amateurs.
