Real Art Certification Board (RACB)

Real Art Certification Board (RACB)

The now defunct but still relevant, Real Art Certification Board is best described in their own words:
We all like art, and yet none of us is really able to define what it is with any certainty. Is it something that gives us joy, pleasure or aesthetic delight? Or something that either comforts us when we feel down or challenges us when we grow complacent? Is it something that makes us think of the inner nature of the world? Or something that makes us contemplate our own humanity? Is beauty solely in the eye of the beholder? And what value does art have really?
These and other questions about the nature of art have remained unanswered for millennia, making it difficult for us to know if the things we see, make, exhibit or collect are real art or something different.
BUT NOW THE UNCERTAINTY IS OVER!
NOW, WITH REAL ART, YOU WILL KNOW, PERIOD!
REAL ART Laboratories is the research division of the “Real Art Certification Board” (RACB), a U.S.-based, ]not-for-profit organization dedicated to the development of proprietary scientific techniques and methodologies designed to determine who is a real artist, and what is real art.
REAL ART Laboratories has devoted decades to conducting extensive scientific studies and experiments into the complex methods, products and etiologies of artists.
And the results are in: the key to real art lies in the genes.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
Everything about you and I comes down to genetics. And these same genetics play a crucial role in determining who will (or won’t) be an artist. In all great artists throughout the ages, certain combinations of genes have been the determining factor in making them so creative. Now, thanks to the wonders of technology, we can easily and accurately identify today who will be the great artists of tomorrow. Now, you can accurately predict whether your 6-month-old son or daughter will be a great artist! And you too may be an artist yourself and not even know it!

But now, with just four simple tests, you can be certain. Thanks to a unique analytic method developed in collaboration with leading international scientists, we are able to offer our unique and highly accurate predicative product to the general public. All you have to do is order our simple REAL ART test today to find out if you or someone you know is a bona fide REAL artist.
