Is it the Art or the
Artist?
The question has come about with the artist viewing the audience who
participate in the creation and wonders. Do they approve of the art or the
artist?
Art, whether it is painting or dancing or music or any creative
action is a subjective emotion. With the continuing variety of choices the
quality of art can be as good or not as the critics or educational information
on the subject allows.
With the inspiration of colors or movement or sound, one may wonder
who has created the art. Some fabulous pieces of crafts are constructed by some
of the poorest people in the world. Those who have never heard another sound or
had any formal instruction create some amazing music. Free celebration can make
a body moves in ways no one has ever seen. Colors and materials can be combined
into visions unforeseen without formal training.
The art is then categorized and analysis by the experts in their
fields to provide the general public with a basic understanding of what they
hear or see, as described by another. To emphasis the importance of the art a
single artist is attached to it, as a symbol or perhaps a celebrity.
So an individual who may be more talented or more expressive or the
first becomes the name associated to a style of art. With thousands of others
who may be as good or not better, the celebrity will receive the accolades and
many times the financial rewards above all others.
