Art

I have been agreeing with Akish, The Curmudgeon and others, that there is too much pure crap out there, masquerading as art.

Here is a small slice of sanity.

Art, showing the subject clearly, but with an added passion whcih makes it worthwhile viewing.

  1. Actually both the picture of the spitfire and the house in the middle of bloody nowhere are crap.
    I home to see you at church tomorrow. You're now officially overdue.

  2. It is all subjective though, isn't it? Thank god we are not all the same. I like the third one of the house in the middle of nowhere, and the one of the old style diner in the middle of the night

    Well, well, well. Not so bloody perfect now, are we?

    As regards being overdue; GOOD.

    The only time I get dragged into church is for weddings and funerals.

    My beloved has been trying (for 20 years) to get me to take our wedding vows again. NEVER
    I love her dearly, but I'm not a hypocrite.

  5. Interesting. Art preferences obviously say a lot about the psych of the viewer.

  6. Fflur, I agree, there are many types of art which are good and worthwhile, but there are others (decomposing sharks, messy bedrooms etc.) which shouldn't see the light of day.
    I remember I was in the Dundee Art School (my University 3rd year Biochemistry course was borrowing a lecture theatre)
    On the way up to the lecture, by a lift, we saw a TV and video player chained inside the lift. As the lift doors closed, the TV came to life, showing a pretty young girl being "muffined".
    As the doors opened at the top floor, a jet of cream was produced from an apparatus on top of the TV.
    This was supposed to be a piece of art be some of their senior students. In a pig's ear was it art.

    BTW the night diner is called the "Nighthawks" by Edward Hopper

  7. Wedding vows are for life anyway. It's like getting re baptized!
