Friendly metaphors and idiosyncratic symbols give the illusion of art and it's that counts. Difficult drawings turn into easy drawings, unnecessary skill is boring art, seen as locally overlapping practices, each with their own constitutive norms and values.
We need idealism because the world is not a rational place and the arts are the method for fixing it.
Artworks make people think differently. Artworks challenge others, because as you get others to think differently, you’re also challenging them. Solid matter just an illusion.
Though impasto typically conveys dynamism and spontaneity, here it rigidly describes static model from the back, avoiding to face certain art.
The external world is not independent of our minds. Ideologues are seldom distracted by images that conflict with their preconceptions, because silly Hegelian idealism is one of the least harmful things known to mankind.
Erwin Panofsky
Idealism bends artistic topicality.
Good art gets you to say things you really didn’t think you would.
Quixotic idealists believe there is a huge role for arts and idealism in an increasingly metamaterial funny world. The arts matter because they work beyond and outside everyday routine categories. The whole look of punk aims to disrupt the social play of obsessively conformist people.
John Tusa
Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do.
Degas
Personification of art sat there waiting for Mr. Death to visit
And the noble, seminal switch is a stuttering candle.
Clive Gamble, Science 6 February 2009: Vol. 323. no. 5915, pp. 709 - 711
Only believe in unrealistic ideals of the human body. The mind is the most elementary reality.
Emile Zola, Patience brings rewards.
Calling all, this is our last cry before our eternal silence. My understanding of idealism is that it’s an umbrella term for a variety of art-related things. The surface meaning and the underlying meaning of poetically capturing spiders are not the same.
Paring down both ideas and means to their most essential,
There is no such thing as a false idea.
