How does the lack of critical discourse surrounding contemporary art, as identified by the author, contribute to the confusion about its purpose and its potential societal impact?

The author connects the vandalism to Hannah Arendt's critique of modern art's rejection of cultural norms. This rejection, the author suggests, lacks a clear purpose, leading to questioning of its value compared to art movements that engaged directly with societal values. The lack of critical discourse surrounding contemporary art is seen as a contributing factor to this issue.
