The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The modern avant-garde traditionally opposed kitsch for its melodramatic tendencies, its superficial relationship with the human condition and its vulgar standards of beauty.
- In the first half of the 20th century, kitsch was used in reference to mass-produced, pop-cultural products that lacked the conceptual depth of fine art.
- However, since the emergence of Pop Art in the 1950s, kitsch has taken on newfound highbrow appeal, often wielded in knowingly ironic, humorous or earnest manners.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Kitsch article was read about 400,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 66 and blocks with 61: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
