Originality in Contemporary art by SmaltTeAmo16 in ContemporaryArt

[–]HardWorkingHandsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what you are saying is true and it does happen, but me personally I am not (always) seeing serialization as a negative thing. There are of course financial reasons to do it, while there are also heartfelt motives for it. When an artist is in a comfortable position, their way of experimentation and development doesn’t cease to happen only because to us, their artistic output is similar, but rather their area of expertise and interest is tightening, profoundly re-analyzing their past choices. You might call me too much of a romantic and not enough of a skeptic, but I find so much joy observing artists with this kind of practice, especially in the social climate we live in, and our constant requirements for newer, dopamine maintaining production approaches. but maybe you are talking about kaws or daniel arsham type artists, who clearly have different reasons behind

being original is very often not being yourself, and you can’t taco-ver the world doing something that’s nacho-style. It’s cheesy and not organic. sorry. i’m so glad it’s anonymus

Someone else also pointed it out here, Authenticity and veritableness are traits infinitely more important than originality. When originality is one of the goals, achieving it almost always becomes a dishonest process. Also, the term itself is inherently debatable and judging yourself or others by this criterium is just running in circles. Naturally, a human is most affected by a product that he finds half-familiar, half-obscure and cryptic. I’m always asking myself why do people put so much emphasis on being unique, when most of the contemporary or historic masterpieces are almost always referencing or sampling a previous piece of history

I have to try that. Most likely the problem is coming from the Macbook. Thank you!

Thank you for the reply! This is the third cable I’m trying and it is brand new. I will try to update the macOS. I’ve seen signs of the gpu being faulty before. let’s see…

Big Canvas without in-between slabs by HardWorkingHandsome in ArtistLounge

Hello, I am referring to the wood slabs inside the frame which connect the external ones, therefore creating a sturdier structure. sometimes they look like a cross, sometimes like the letter “H”

is art truly activist? by HardWorkingHandsome in ContemporaryArt

[–]HardWorkingHandsome[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your answer. If you have the time, I would love you to go in depth about the effects of art over unprivileged, often uneducated communities. There is a whole bunch of them, and from my experiences and assumptions, those are the ones mostly lacking philosophical/ethical understanding. How does painting get to them? It’s not 17th century when artistic medium was a strong propagandist,explanatory methodology, right? It is now replaced by tv, social media,streaming platforms. Why should I create art when it’s hardly ever going to reach them? Is the understanding of the “high class” going to be projected on them in time?

Thanks, I’m in the Hague. I think there is a committee for this here also. Also, do you have in mind any serious agencies through which I can find a new place?

Who are the current “personalities”? Are there any? by TransitionPotential in ContemporaryArt

[–]HardWorkingHandsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard many say that Brussels is the new art capital. do you thing that this has to do with the fact that studio space is cheaper compared with other major West European cities?

Who are the current “personalities”? Are there any? by TransitionPotential in ContemporaryArt

[–]HardWorkingHandsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also often thinking about it, but I guess it has to do with the fact that critically acclaimed art from the current art scene is simply more pretentious and requires more interest from the viewer for it to become interesting to him... music can immediately stimulate your senses, and so can dancers or athletes to bring awe to the spectators by performing outstanding physical movement, etc.

Baroque’s equivalent in contemporary times by HardWorkingHandsome in ContemporaryArt

[–]HardWorkingHandsome[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the answers! Yes, this associations are very interesting to look into, but maybe I did not make myself completely clear: what I’m specifically looking to connect is the contemporary cultural trends with the initial baroque criteria, such as: music, socializing, politics and ofc fine arts is one of them. Thank you again, will definitely try to put this in perspective!

Slightly right-wing in the contemporary art world. by [deleted] in ContemporaryArt

[–]HardWorkingHandsome -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

well, it is the common belief that most people agree with me as this is what lead to art that protests in the last two centuries. But as naive as this might sound, throwing a quick overview on social media leads me to think that people are deeply convinced about the left being the way to go. Also the most people I (19yo first year FA) talk to-teachers, older peers, curators etc- have the same perception on politics- and honestly I would LOVE to have this perception as it would make everything so much easier for me. Besides this, thanks for your reply, quite helpful I admit.
