Well that's kind of like going to a library and complaining that nobody wants to chat. Art goes to the MoMA specifically to be "taken out of the world" and isolated.

I think it's more like going to a zoo and complaining that it's not a safari.

Logistically, it makes sense to sometimes put up with the artificiality of a zoo, but I think it's the superior option to appreciate animals in their natural context when you have the option :)
