What is Art?
Has anyone a succinct definition for what is called Art?
I have been wondering whether art is an attempt to express ones observations and feelings about one's social environment in as unfiltered a way as possible -using whatever medium comes to hand.
Has anyone any other ideas? (is mine too obvious and catch all?)
(Is it even possible to be succinct about the subject ?)
“You must first of all remember that there are two kinds of art, one quite different than the other — objective art and subjective art. All that you know, all that you call art, is subjective art, that is, something that I do not call art at all because it is only objective art that I call art…. We have different standards. I measure the merit of art by its consciousness and you measure it by its unconsciousness.”
