Re: [Merged] Is it Art?

And I spend my time trying to persuade children that they are artists and everyone can be an artist..and their reply is that it's a load of crap..

Guess the artist has proved their point...

---------- Post added at 14:12 ---------- Previous post was at 13:58 ----------

Anyway Art is subjective..it has to be.It has to be all things to all people.Just because I don't like something doesn't mean it's not art as Art is in the eye of the beholder.

My favourite sculptor is Claes OldenBurg.Now he thinks really big.

Here is his manifesto.

Some examples of his work

That manifesto is great. Some of the images he juxtaposes are really thought provoking.

We have a few similar 'large editions of common objects' type sculptures around Manchester and they still make me smile, this one in particular as people do chain their bikes to it quite regularly.

Re: [Merged] Is it Art?

I love art that makes me laugh but I'm more keen on art that makes me think but above all I prefer art that makes me connect to my emotions.

Any art that fails to any of the above is still art though...Because it probably affects someone else even if it does not for me.

Re: [Merged] Is it Art?

Did anyone read about the stray dog that was tied up in an art exhibition without any food or water? They let it die and called that art.

Well, I don't really have much thought over his social experiment, but I do hope the dog didn't actually die.
