Almost but not quite. By "godawful" I mean the works don't meet my minimum requirements for good art, which are that they must either be aesthetically satisfying or emotionally evocative, and hopefully both.
I think the Large Bathers are both crudely done and emotionally vapid.
And yes, I am quite aware that many people with degrees disagree with me. Thus my own personal opinion that they are pretentious and rationalizing.
