Artworks are alive, and dont need oxygen and humidity to stay alive.
Dont overlook the positive reasons why people question or seek alternatives to academic considerations on art, grounded in their own knowledge. Images are necessary for everything, a story about how fine art things can never, finally, be trusted. Simple and naive images however are trustful and confident.
Information wants to be free, bringing out the parts of me that may never have flowered. Information blends humour and mythology to explore the impact of urban life on the human body. One of the key tenets of simple drawing is to undo all this toxic thinking.
"For there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." William Shakespeare, in Hamlet, 1603
Prepare your visitors for the possibility that their expectations may need to be altered, originality is deceptively hard. I am a zebra, I think I have earned my stripes. When it comes time to avoid being eaten, stripes are always in fashion.
Man can surpass himself; this is what makes him human
Tzvetan Todorov
Most pictures think too much, but the art world needs nerdiness (stripes always do something). Artist's self portraits reveal certain aspects of an person's identity. Rose Sandspurry's works express care and tenderness, reflecting on the fragility and beauty of life.
Curiosity brings knowledge
Everyone makes a different deal with the devil to get their shows up. I understand that some people scapegoat groups with identities outside of their own intentionally limited comfort zone. Let's realize that exchanging art which take inspiration from alternative subcultures, is better than exchanging bombs.
The artists known as Abstract Expressionists valued spontaneity and improvisation, and they accorded the highest importance to process. However I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them (Pablo Picasso).
"There are no rules for how we come by our theories. We can dream them up, see them in our tea leaves or take them out of the library. It doesn't matter."
John D. Barrow
That most pictures think too much and are so scared by bad art is the fundamental tragedy of art theory. Thinking pictures can live everywhere.
Empirical observations are little without an underlying theory to generalize them.
Aravinda Chakravarti, This can be a sobering experience, bad pictures become economically unhinged.
My gut objection to your argument soon solidified as I thought of the enormous volume of of daily doodling as inventive thinking, and experience of bad art. The picture is pointing out how ludicrous and inadequate ink is, the inking cannot account for the phenomenology observed.
Most artists have, at some point, represented the universal symbol of creation which is the hand, creativity and innovation thinking visually.
Theory is the art of giving the same name to different artworks. The trouble is art is not an exact science. The contest is just beginning. Visual thinking fascinating conundrum, a common neural signature of aesthetic experience.
The task of the artist is to discern if there is a reality behind the appearance of things. Drawing is the first visible thing of the form of the thought.
However, humor proved to be only one piece of the puzzle, and a call for creative answers. Beuys experienced the physical act of drawing as the primary means through which to crystallise his conceptual thinking.
Perpetually one picture away from finishing this damn web page. I have been distracted a lot lately. Food for thought, I guess.
