Bravo's Work of Art hasn’t disappointed this season.

I watched the inaugural season of the show, and became instantly addicted. They cast the poor, tortured artist who had impressively tousled hair and OCD. They had the happy-go-lucky black sweetheart who was raised by a single mom. They had the hot painter who wore stilettos and could be convinced to paint herself in masturbatory bliss.

This season, the girls are prettier and artier, and the boys are skinnier and have more tattoos. It seems like they went onto the street and pulled out the people who looked like artists. But I don’t care—that’s what I want from my TV!

This week’s episode required the artists to incorporate a headline from the New York Times into their work,  literally putting the newspaper’s headlines into their artwork. It could have been an interesting challenge, but most of the contestants interpreted the challenge so literally, it was kind of silly.

The judges really liked three pieces. Lola, a 24-year-old tortured artist from New York City who likes to wear combat boots and disheveled hair, created a piece that she most obviously didn't connect with that spoke to the Libyan rebels’ shoddy weapons. She created weapons out of newspaper and traced the photographs with pencil onto a large white paper. Jerry Saltz, the bespectacled art critic from New York magazine, orgasmed a little and said that tracing photographs and writing words on them was Lola’s future.

Another top contestant is the lovable Dusty, the only artist from Arkansas, who creates a map of the United States out of balled up newspaper, casting some downtrodden figures in black to represent the economic depression.

But Young, a Korean-American 28-year-old, who said he would use the $20,000 prize to buy a headstone for his recently deceased father’s grave, is the winner. He made black, bundled papers of the headline “Where is Ai Weiwei?,” the Chinese artist arrested by the police. I’m glad Lola didn’t win because her mom used to date Al Pacino.

The bottom three are the Sucklord (yes, that’s his name), a 42-year-old New Yorker who made an awfully literal piece implicating, oddly, the New York Times in the Gulf oil spill, Sarah, an art professor, who intricately cut a piece of the newspaper to represent madness and Bayete, who painted doors gold to represent the glitz of religion. Bayete’s is really bad, and he can’t defend it. The judges, rightly, send him home.
