haha yeah, i would prefer to be the first type, the second seems to be worrying too much over nothing

The coolest artists are ones that talk about ''I see the comments on my painting, and it means so many different things to so many different people, things that I didn't think about at all, it's beautiful''. And then you have the other type ''No, no, no you didn't get it at all, The painting is about X not about Y, idiot'', there are a bunch of them on deviantart

but yeah, what those wacky abstract artist do sometimes means that its more about them than the art itself

and thats better that doing something so simple that there is only one interpretation

i dont even understand why you should explain anything, thats the cool thing, it is subjetive maybe i wanted to tell something, but you got something different

29 Apr 03:29

Gliger

btw, adding insult to injury. If you have to explain your art, then you are not an artist. I know sooo many ''amazing abstract painters'' that all they do is explain and complain because people don't get their ''awesome work'' but enough ranting

AND, I still think that even in other fields, prodigies are nonsense

29 Apr 03:26

EduardoGaray

yeah, the kid prodigy part is only marketing

29 Apr 03:25

Gliger

If art is about transmithing you deepest feelings, why the hell does it matter if you are a kid or not, there shouldn't be something as being a prodigy

Gliger

The thing is, this is what I don't get

29 Apr 03:24

EduardoGaray

have you seen the george bush portraits? they are crap but i'm sure someone will pay for them

29 Apr 03:24

Gliger

And yup meat, if you buy something and you are famous or whatever, you can sell the painting later for more.

29 Apr 03:23

Gliger

That was a really simplistic argument, it's not really that simple, but it's kinda like that.

29 Apr 03:23

Gliger

The thing is, art is art, if an artists manages to transmit something deep to someone else, then it's art. BUT, art is a bussiness, if your work is shit, but google paid you a million dollars for a couple paintings, people will buy your crap for hundres of thousands later on. I'm not interested in abstract art, or art in general really. But I'm 100% into ideas, worlds, concepts and stories

meat

and buyer is willing to pay for the hype it'll create?

29 Apr 03:20

EduardoGaray

--

heh, things only cost what its buyer is willing to pay

29 Apr 03:19

KurtJeremy

also its funny that the people who bought the artwork for thousands of dollars says its for some kind of investment. sigh* if people would just like donate that kind of money to charity or something

Give me an autistic child and I'll return you an art sensation

anyone gets the art theyre doing in the video i posted? its just so bizarre and random for me and i hate it when i see an artwork that i dont understand. its pointless when other people dont get your artwork

29 Apr 03:14

EduardoGaray

--

what i couldnt stand is artist who do that stuff and then try to justify themselves with some silly reasoning, sex sells, you know it, be honest

29 Apr 03:13

EduardoGaray

--

hahaha what was amusing is that people only critiqued the design, no the artwork itself, which was usually low/average

29 Apr 03:12

Gliger

The only protected part lol

29 Apr 03:12

Gliger

I always make up stories about that type of paintings, like: *In War, ''OH NO, She's destroying us!! quick aim for the nipples!''

Yet people who aren't as used to seeing the development in someones art carrer as we are, calls it ''unique, and original'', it's not, it's shit
