Guys, please; the silliest thing to argue personally over is opinions. And since everything is opinion and subjective anyway, we shouldn't take anything personally, right?
Your experience of the world is just as valid as mine. For 'world' read 'art', 'politics', 'sex' or any other noun you like. I also have to say: you must have picked THE SINGLE, MOST subjective thing in EXISTENCE to fight about! Nosferatu, there's nothing wrong with argument as reasoned discussion. Vla, your slightly holier-than-thou tone probably doesn't help... But come on guys, art?!? I mean really. I don't think it's even possible to discuss art in its concrete form without sounding like a wanker. I meant what I said: there's no point in arguing like this over subjectivities. Art only really has proper meaning for the artist. If you experience some piece that makes you feel something too, well great! But even trying to define art or who is or isn't an 'artist' is a COMPLETE waste of time. I'd like to think we have more important things to discuss here. If Vla says 'Dali's not an artist', I guess she means 'I don't like Dali's work that much, because of the attitude he took to making it' or something like that. Correct me if I'm wrong here. ;) Silly rabbits! Tricks are for kids. FK |
