Kylie Minogue is unquestionably a pop music icon, but now she's trying her hand at being a visual artist, too — and nail polish is her paint of choice. It's an interesting choice, and totally in keeping with Kylie's girly persona. This piece, a photograph of her by the artist Rankin that she covered in abstracted swirls, is being auctioned off this Saturday for the UK charity Youth Music. Since nail polish and car paint have very similar formulas, I can see it being a legit medium. But what do you think? Is nail polish art like Kylie's meant to be taken seriously?

in theory, it could work. in practice, i'm pretty sure buying a poster and nail polish and handing them to a toddler would have the same effect for way, way less money.
1haha go to art school
2I like it! I don't like Kylie but I'd buy it.
3You guys are ridiculous. Of course nail polish is an art medium. There are artists who use animal feces as paints, so nail polish isn't bad...at all. I use it all the time along with acrylics paints because it is so much shinier and adds a different effect. I completely support it. Oh, and I DO go to art school and my nail polish art has always been well received.
4I love Kylie!
