Argumentative Essay About Art
A wise person once said, "Do not underestimate yourself by comparing yourself with others. It's our differences that make us unique and
beautiful." I had been taught this in one of the most unusual ways. A few years ago, during the end of the day I had been given an invitation to
come to the art show, which had meant my art was accepted. Once I had got home, my family congratulated me saying," I knew you would get in."
and " You did such an amazing job." I had entered art in, but as I seen other kids art, I didn't expect mine to get in, yet somehow I had still made it.
The other children's art was more intricate and showed a higher level of skill, while mine was nothing out of the blue. I was itching for the art
show to come. Suspense was slowly killing me from the inside out. The art show was only in a few days, but I wanted it to come much sooner.
After what had felt like years of waiting, the day had come, the art show had finally arrived. I was so jumpy through the whole day of school, I
wouldn't be surprised if I had got compared to a frog. After school, I did my homework and tried to relax in one way or another. My method hadn't
worked since, curiosity still was killing me. As the old saying goes " curiosity, killed the cat." was true for my situation. The clock had finally struck
6:00, signaling was time to leave. My parents had drove my anxious self to the art show. As I walked in through the large glass doors of the
community center, my nose was greeted with

My Reflection Of Art
Art has been something that I have always enjoyed. Whether it be actually creating my own pieces or admiring pieces from local artist, it has
been a passion of mine very early on in my life. Now before taking Art 102 I never really attempted to dive in deep to the pieces I was admiring; I
never really "decoded" any of the pieces, really. Instead, I would simply snap a quick photo, add a dark filter that really made the reds stand out, and
write a witty quote. This has been my cycle when walking into any exhibit for the past years; find the most visually appealing work of art and spend
more time on posting the piece on social media than actually interpreting what the artist was trying to portray. Going through the semester I have learned

Charles Graner and his team are the ones responsible for such actions and are responsible for the photo. When Graner and his team were exposed
by Joe Derby, the entire world took note and there was not only outrage on Graner's part but on Derby as well for betraying his fellow American
military. Copper Greene not only borrows the photo but iPod billboard as well and in a sense does a spin off creating his unique piece with his
own message. The reason why we as individuals are able to make the connection of Greene's piece to Apple's advertisement is because the idea of
signifier and signified. Where in this case the we take the signifier which is the bright loud colors with the a dark figure used in Greene's work and
we translate that to the signified; which is apple products. In short, bright loud colors with dark figure equals apple products. Greene also uses
bricoloage to create a sense of representation as he is using his platform to highlight the real world and those real issues. In this case, that being of
American Military personal using strong forms of interrogation. Looking at the piece closer and decoding what the white headphones truly mean, we
can conclude that those headphones not only serves as electrical wires used for torture but too Americans use those some head phones to shut out the
outside world and any real problems, isolating themselves to their tunes and their own problems. The

The Emotional Perception of Art Essay
The Emotional Perception of Art Art has a rare capability of evoking different emotions in different people. Two people can look at the same piece
of art and see two images that are entirely dissimilar. What one perceives while looking at art depends on a person's state of mind. If one is happy,
he or she will find something cheerful and pleasing in the work of art. However, if one is depressed or going through a hard time, it will be as if they
are looking at two paintings or two sculptures that are totally unalike. The artist's purpose in creating his or her masterpiece is to create something that
will make the viewer think and imagine what the piece of art is showing them. Malcolm Gladwell states in Blink: The adaptive...show more content...
The nun is grabbing onto the man with both her hands and she has the man's red scarf clenched between her teeth. The author portrays the man as
a thief, by giving him many objects that he appears to have stolen. They include a rusty metal sword, two hand bags, and a black briefcase.
However, if one were to look at this painting without having read the title, one may get a different perspective of the painting. For instance, when I
first gazed at the painting I envisioned a different situation occurring. I saw a man who is trying to escape from a woman, not because he has
stolen something from her, but because she will not leave him alone and let him live his life. When I stared at his eyes it almost appeared that
they were telling me "Oh no, she found me again!" His facial expression was so distraught and so depressed that I immediately knew how he felt.
The reason I saw this production in such a way, was because at the time I was viewing the image I was feeling very similar to what I thought the
artist was trying to portray. I noticed depression in the man's facial expression, because I was slightly depressed and I acknowledged his pain,
because I was hurting. Another reason why this picture stands out so much is its use of violence. Because the lady is forcefully holding onto the man,
it provides an effect that is described greatly by Kate Robotham in her essay on artistic violence: Unlike many aspects of the art world, artistic

The Importance of Art Essay
Art is a form of human expression. Art can be seen as the artist sleight of hand on his mood. Art is in various media from posters to public wall of
which we call "graffiti". Art is elusive as the use of colors shapes and the surface used adds a new dimension. Art portrays various ideas, feelings such
as triumph, love, happiness, sorrow and boredom in loss to mention a few. Art is beauty and creativity. During man's evolution art has progressed over
in its most primitive state up to its most modernized versions today.
History shows that art has been used as a major tool for communication. Cavemen did art on their walls using unsophisticated and blunt tools. The

Ancient Egyptians, Aztecs, Incas and Mayans created many meticulous pieces of art. Some of the meticulous pieces of art are masks, pyramids,
jewelry, wall paintings, tombs, sarcophagi. The primal Romans and Greeks showed their appreciation of life through art. India used art to show their
dance and their religions. The African art is symbolic of their tribal cuffs as seen of their totem poles.
Today, Art has gone through many changes. Abstract art dominates art today shows ambiguous life a man lives, in contrast to the unambiguous art of
the past. Modern does not have spirituality and cultural values and beliefs in the past and is now a reflection of a materialistic life of today. Bill
Henson, a portrait artist used his 12 year old Olympia as a nude model for his portrait drawing. This brought much controversy that he was exploiting
the body of an under – age girl as his own gains. This shows that art is used for popularity and financial gain. The message behind art is to show ideas
and ideas that are relevant to society. Art is meant to enliven life and things, thoughmodern art shows more if life's negativeness. Galleries, parks and
museums view to the public with meaningfulness and with the appreciation for art. Art is still effective as hand written material was seen in the walls
of Ancient Egypt. Modern art stimulates the thought and fosters greater

Essay On Why I Love Art
Although I have been drawing for a majority of my life, it wasn't until recently when I realized just how much I love art. Art was my method of
self–expression and creativity, creating a doorway for my imagination to explain its intricacies. I love art because of its ability to express emotions,
moods, and stories.
Stories are a large aspect of the artist in me. As someone with an extremely vivid imagination, stories are my way of expressing thoughts, coping with
problems, and bringing a bit of adventure into a routine life. I can create the personalities, strengths, flaws, and motives of many diverse characters that
change the corrupt fantastical world they live in. Through art, I draw out these characters' designs, emotions, and storylines,...show more content...
I used pencil in order to create a high contrast with the shadows and highlights and I used colored pencils and pen to create both subtle colors and
a surreal effect. I am also influenced greatly by the stories I watch. My mandala art piece is filled with themes from the show RWBY, which is
about a young girl and her team of friends battling monsters and corruption in a dangerous, but unique world. RWBY inspired me to take a more
fantastical approach to my story, building a world with its own laws, countries, and history. I made this piece into a mandala in order to expand
into different art styles. With the radial design I created a type of abstract symbolism, something I rarely have done in my art before. Some of my
art pieces aren't inspired by stories, however. In my observation piece, I drew a flower that has been in my house ever since I could remember. This
flower represents home for me, always giving off a familiar vibe and a nostalgic feeling of comfort, security, and safeness. I used colored pencils in
order to learn realism through color because before this piece I had only ever drawn grayscale art pieces. Finally, my second student choice art piece,

ARTS–1301 (86020) Art Appreciation
Museum Paper
This paper will criticize the Guardian, an oil painting on canvas by Valton Tyler, created in 1973 and is displayed by the Amon Carter Museum of
American Art in Fort Worth, TX. The painting illustrates unusual structures that utilize a variety of geometric and organic shapes. The irregular
curvilinear form and shapes of the structures has this whimsical fairytale meets mechanical futuristic feel to it– or Dr. Seuss meets Wizard of Oz. The
amorphous shaped clouds in the melancholy sky give it this sort of industrial, bleak, factory smokestack impression. The dreary sky is then contrasted
with these lively organic structures that are set amongst a green landscape with hills or mountains...show more content...
The first thing that came to mind when I thought about what the artwork is representing, was a little green plant sprouting through the cracks of
concrete. This thought I had is like the little leaves sprouting from the structures in the painting. I was reading an article the other day about how
long mankind has been here in the timeline of the earth and how much we have destroyed in the small amount of time we have resided on earth. I
feel it is vital to respect and appreciate mother nature, but our world does the exact opposite. Mankind has caused global warming, polluted the
oceans and air, destroyed 50% of forests and have caused a variety of species to go extinct. We have abused our planet and have failed to properly
nurture it. We hardly rely on nature to provide us with food anymore either. Why farm when we can concoct our diet in a lab and then produce it in
a factory in large volumes quickly and inexpensively? I can't stress how important it is to still be connected to nature and your fellow man. We have
become so indulged in technology that we are now these lifeless robots. By this I mean, we sit with our faces glued to our tablets, TV's, cellphones,
etc. This is no way to live. It's a mindless, empty zombie way of living. I think technology is great, but society should be weary and careful of how
much, when and where we utilize it. Technology

Essay on The Many Forms of Art
Throughout the cultural history of man, objects have been created to entertain, record, confront, enrich, clarify, communicate, reveal, to order and
disorder, with or without a purpose. Yet the definition of what is art is obscure, we are able to recognise for ourselves but not express concisely
what art is. Art has 'a complicated network of overlapping series of similarities' (Law, 2003) however there is not one feature that all art has in
common. The classification of Art does not fit into the classic logic argument where to be defined as art the object must have a stated characteristic,
as in the manner of classifying a dog, computer, house or boat. A dog is a dog because it has some but not all of the characteristics of A, B,

Without being able to speak with the animal artists it is difficult to determine what they are seeking to express, and whether their work is intended to
communicate something to us or other animals, whether it is a self rewarding activity, or aesthetically motivated, (The Museum of Non–Primate Art,
(MONPA), 1999). A characteristic of art is it's nonconformity to a definable formula. Law (2003, p100) defines art in two parts, firstly as an artifact or
something that has been worked on and secondly as something that has been nominated with the status of 'art work' by the 'art world' – the artist,
curator, or 'expert,' but art may be art without being identified by the institution classified as the 'art world.' The art world's opinion of what is art
is dynamic and may change over time, an artist may create without believing their work to be art, for that object to later be determined to be art.
The 'qualifying conditions of what makes a work of art may change from time to time in an unsystematic way' (Brooks, 2008, p96). Craft is not art,
craft pertains to the making of decorative or practical objects with skill by hand, craft may be artistic in creation. There exists a difference between art
and a work of art, a work of art is able to be

Essay on Art in Society
Without art, the world would be a vast empty void of uncreative, unimaginative, non–colourful, bland society; Toast with no butter or topping; boring,
life–draining death of the mind. Art is absolutely everywhere in everyday society, yet goes almost unnoticed and unappreciated by some; television,
movies, music, stories, billboards, ads, even clothes and jewellery. These are all symbols of art or art in there own right, and without the Arts, there
would be none of this. Art has created all these things that go unappreciated, has changed all the unimaginative, has manipulated the place we live into
a more beautiful and wonderful place to live. And without support, of all the Arts, then society as a whole will die a little every time art...show more

Without Art, and therefore without the Arts; anthropological research into behaviour ofhuman life from any era in history would be greatly diminished;
society would be without soul, without art, without music, without theatre, or any form of fictional writing and storytelling. Haviland writes "art
reflects the cultural values and concerns of a people. This is especially true of the verbal arts – myths, legends, and tales" (1990, p.383). He also states
that "Myth, set standards for orderly behaviour, and the verbal arts generally transmit and preserve a cultures customs and values" (1990, p.383). So if
asked who benefits from the Arts then the answer must surely be all of us; without the arts, we would never have stories of our past, or even learn
from our past mistakes, or triumphs. Without the Arts, there would be no great writers, painters, or musicians; no Shakespeare, no Picasso, no
Beethoven; we would have no past creative history, no creative evolution.
Often seen as a luxury item, the Arts sometime is overlooked in the level of absolute necessity it has on society and the people within that society to
learn, grow and communicate and understand his/her fellowman. Without the Arts, we would never learn of other cultures, we would never learn any
ideas from foreign art, music or theatre. But the idea of the Arts getting supported in most western countries is seen as a luxury item, a non–necessity.
This opinion is only generally because the

The Art Of Art And Art : Baasquiat's Art
Although Basquiat's mother Matilde was the driving force behind the artist at a young age, it was his life experiences which shaped his
personality and in turn his artwork. The first shift in focus for Basquiat occurred in 1968 when he was struck by an automobile and injured. While
recovering, his mother gifts him a copy of Gray's Anatomy and here is where he takes special interest in anatomy which is later reflected in his
pieces. At age 15, Basquiat runs away from home after his parents had been divorced and his mother was in and out of mental institutions.
Basquiat led a life on the streets of New York, sleeping on park benches in Tompkins Square Park and eating what he could find. Around this time,
in 1976, he and Al Diaz create a fictional character by the name of SAMO (Same Old Shit) and the two began to spread witty philosophical
messages throughout the Lower East Side of Manhattan. The SAMO days begin to build a name for Basquiat and, along with his ingenious and
suave personality, he slowly integrates in the art scene of New York. Basquiat's capacity to distill his perception of the outside world down to their
essence, and project them outward through his art is what defined his unique style. He was capable of digesting complex social issues such as racial
injustice or religion and unlock a more basic truth through his simple, thought provoking pieces. One of Basquiat's most iconic pieces, Irony of the
Negro Policeman deals with criticism of his own race. Because

Descriptive Essay On Art
So, what is art? Art is a arrangement of ideas that an artist makes or builds. There are various variations for art that express their found creativity and
inspiration to their artwork. Many people make art to display their emotions and ideas towards life or to create something beautiful for spectators. Art is
a form of pleasure which appeases the audience to stay connected or feel fixated on that certain artwork. Art is understood through focusing on its:
function, visual form, content and creativity. It should communicate with the viewers and help them imagine the concept of the artwork. They should
also qualify work that could be seen or physically felt, displaying their ideas to be conveyed to the public. Imagery and symbolic meaning should be
present with their art piece. In addition, they must portray their creativity and imagination on a canvas or any work of art. In my opinion, art is a
representation of your thoughts and emotions portrayed to the audience in a perceivable and communicative manner, helping the audience connect
with the artwork.
The creativity of paintings helps the viewer understand the artist's emotions, as well as their art piece. Pablo Picasso, one of the greatest painters of the
twentieth century, helped me understand more about art, as well as his point of view of his own style or method to display his emotions onto a canvas.
I learned that Picasso was the creator of modern arts through his imaginative and innovative ideas found in

The History of Art Essay
The History of Art
Art was the first written language and to study the history of art is to study the history of civilizations and humankind. The Paleolithic cave paintings
in France, when viewed in the modern western perspective can only be speculated at as to the intent and/or purpose of the original artisans. Perhaps the
paintings of animals were the focal point of a religious ceremony or ritual, surveyed before the hunt, to bring success or perhaps part of a celebration or
documentation after the successful hunt. It appears that art from the earliest history into the Renaissance focuses around religious ceremonies of some
type.

Without the scientific knowledge of later generations, it is assumed that these figures were representations to invoke fertility.
Mesopotamia art was centered in what are now Iran and Iraq. The developing cultures (Assyrians, Sumerians, Babylonians, etc) in the area, between
the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, which is sometimes called the "Cradle of Civilization" or the "Fertile Crescent", are credited with the invention of
cuneiform writing which is shown to us in the Stele (law code) of Hamarabi. Within these cultures, rulers often conferred with the religious leaders and
religion was an important part of their society.
The unique character of Sumerian art is exemplified by a group of votive statues from the Abu Temple, at Tell Asmar. The identities of these statues are
unclear. However, it is an educated theory that they served Abu, God of vegetation, and they represent priests, and worshipers. There is no indication
that these figures were intended to represent a naturalistic scheme. It is important to note that the symbolization is that of the human form and
representative of some form of authoritarian hierarchy. Tracking the human form and its relationship to art, history, and culture as the human figure
evolves through the centuries as artists perfect their

Reflection About Art
Arts generate a strong feeling of admiration, displeasure, or anything in between. Furthermore, art expresses the human experience, and because of that
correlation, there's a stronger bond between art and humanity. That bond allows art to evoke intense and powerful emotion from us . However, there is
a difference between art and art–like; art has implication beyond the obvious, and art–like being merely decorative. So it is crucial to remember, that
true art has meaning either positive or negative. Obviously, I learned that through this course and from experiencing art in the real world. In fact,
since the beginning of this course I've been searching for art in the real world, so I can analyze and try to understand the deeper meaning behind
it. Searching and Finding art in the world has certainly opened my eyes to all of the wonderful things in the world. Searching for art, I've found
that it is everywhere around us and plays a major role in our everyday lives. Since taking this course I have encountered art in my home and school.
Both are places that I go almost everyday, but my concept of art was so limited that I neglected to notice. At my home the paintings, books, and even
the building itself is art. Infact, my mom has a Thomas Kinkade original hanging in the hallway and countless bibles lying around. Not only do we
have bibles, but on my bookshelf lies tons of classic literature that I never considered to be art, because I thought art was "just paintings and stuff".

Descriptive Essay About Art
The more I learn about art in art class the more I pay attention to everything I see. I try to understand the meaning of each art I see, and what the
artist is trying to inform me or to the world. In the study of art you have to pay attention to every detail in an art work and what color or shapes he or
she used. Of all the art works that I saw in the Museum of Fine Arts, there were three art works which I preferred out of hundreds of arts works in the
museum. The very first art work that I saw at the museum is one of my favorite ones. The artist that created the art work his name is Frederic
Remington. His art work is an American made in 1861–1909. The painting was made with oil paint on canvas to make it look shinny. The painting is
representational because the three horse raiders resemble real things from the real world. In this painting Frederic Remington creates tension by
suspending the action at its climax. As the raiders and horses rush headlong into the viewer's space, the fate of the fallen raider is unclear. While the
facial expressions of the raiders appear calm, the rearing heads and flared nostrils of the horses convey the horror of the scene. His painting catches
your eye right away because of the light colors he uses to distinguish between the sky and the terrain. The color of the sky looks very realistic because
of the combination of colors blue and white. Yet he didn't use white for the clouds, but you can tell that it is sunny because of the shadow that

Art Analysis Essay
Though most works of art have some underlying, deeper meaning attached to them, our first impression of their significance comes through our initial
visual interpretation. When we first view a painting or a statue or other piece of art, we notice first the visual details – its size, its medium, its color,
and its condition, for example – before we begin to ponder its greater significance. Indeed, these visual clues are just as important as any other
interpretation or meaning of a work, for they allow us to understand just what that deeper meaning is. The expression on a statue's face tells us the
emotion and message that the artist is trying to convey. Its color, too, can provide clues: darker or lighter colors can play a role in how we...show more

The Stele depicts a simple scene: a seated man and standing woman behind him stare blankly straight ahead. A woman standing on the left looks
down upon them. All of them are ordinary humans. They are not gods or goddesses. They are private people. Their clothing is plain, consisting of
simple robes. It is representational of a regular family mourning the loss of one of its members, a scene that most people, even today, are able to relate
to hundreds or even thousands of years later.
The stele conveys a solemn forlornness that can be seen in the figures' faces. Their mouths are tightly shut; their eyes gaze blankly ahead. The woman
on the left stares ahead with little emotion on her face. The stele does not depict any motion. All of the figures are standing (or sitting) still, in quiet
memorial. This solemnity adds to the emotion of a grave where the stele once stood. There is no real clear answer as to who is being mourned. Are the
seated man and the woman mourning the loss of their daughter, on the left? Or is the woman on the left mourning the loss of a father? The sculpture's
ambiguity also adds to the emotion that it evokes. It might even be appropriate for its purpose. Its function was to mark a gravesite – the site of the
body of someone who has died. Death is one of the most complex parts of life. It is the most ambiguous, for nobody knows for sure what happens in
death. The ambiguity of the stele highlights

Essay on art
contemporary art, the art of the late 20th cent. and early 21st cent., both an outgrowth and a rejection of modern art. As the force and vigor of abstract
expressionism diminished, new artistic movements and styles arose during the 1960s and 70s to challenge and displace modernism in painting,
sculpture, and other media. Improvisational and Dada–like styles employed in the early 1960s and thereafter by Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns
had widespread influence, as did the styles of many other artists. The most significant of the often loosely defined movements of early contemporary art
included pop art, characterized by commonplace imagery placed in new aesthetic contexts, as in the work of such figures as Andy Warhol and Roy

Among other contemporary "neo" styles are the cool "neo–geo" abstractions of Peter Halley and others, the stark structures of neoconceptualism, the
slick neopop of such artists as Jeff Koons, and the landscape revival represented by Diane Burko and April Gornik, among others.
Many new artists have simultaneously invoked and challenged art history, rejecting the heroic stature of the singular work of art and the single
(usually white male) artist and invoking the ubiquity of mechanically produced reproductions by employing sophisticated "quotations" or
"appropriations" from prior works. This can be found, for example, in Cindy Sherman's photographic recreations of paintings, in the multiple
quotations of historic images of David Salle's paintings, in the postmodern takes on Barnett Newman by Philip Taaffe and on Manet by Yasumasa
Morimura, and in the nearly identical representations of famous images such as Picasso's icon of modernism Les Demoiselles d'Avignon by Mike Bidlo.
Also widespread among contemporary artists has been a repudiation of the idea that underlies most works of pure abstraction–that the work of art is a
self–sufficient entity. Rejecting the exclusively self–referential images of abstraction and the constricted commercialism of the art world (yet often
embracing the wider

Reflective Essay On Art Museum
MFAH CULTURAL RESPONSE ESSAY
The art museum is truly a work of art in itself. I enjoy trips to places of culture, be it a play, musical, opera, art gallery or, in this case, a museum.
When I walk in, I feel inspired to draw, paint, and sculpt. For just a little while, I get to focus on art and experience a sense of detachment from the
everyday hustle and bustle of the world. Time truly seems to slow down when you're at the museum. Upon entering the museum, I felt refreshed and
frankly, smarter. For my Cultural Response Essay, I visited the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston. I visited the museum briefly last semester to view
specific works, but this was the first time that my family and I took our time, really feeling the art and traverse all of the rooms. The last time we
went to the museum, we missed an entire top floor! Fortunately this time, we found our way upstairs and lo and behold if it was not my favorite time
period... Egyptian. At the Egyptian exhibit they had mummies, hieroglyphics, jewelry, pottery and statues of pharaohs. The works I enjoyed the most
came from this floor, so I concentrated my efforts there. I chose the Mummy of a child, The Coffin of Pedi–Osiris, and The falcon–form Coffin with
Grain Mummy to discuss. Mummy of a Child dates from between 30 B.C. to 150 AD. Ancient Egyptians believed in life after death, so they
discovered a detailed and complicated process called mummification. The body of the deceased was bathed repeatedly to both cleanse the body and
the soul. The lungs, liver, stomach, and intestines were preserved and protected in canopic jars for the afterlife. The heart, on the other hand, was kept
intact with the body. This was necessary in order for the deceased to prove goodness in the afterlife. The pictures on the delicate wrappings are
extremely significant as everything represents something in Egyptian culture. The painted wrappings of the child held two green jackals at the top, the
jackals representing Anubis, god of embalming. The color green signifies renewal and rebirth which expresses the hope for immortality of the
departed. The red diamond shape in the middle of the jackals represents the child's heart. The mourning females are the goddesses Isis and

My Passion For Art Essay
Art. To me is something undefinable, what I want my art to show you is a piece of myself and a piece of yourself. Something we can all relate to;
a memory, a song, a poem, art should make you feel something. Art is a gift, a tool we can use to hide beauty in ordinary places and things. I want
to broaden my understanding of design and the world that art is beyond my knowledge and experiences. Because my love for creating burns so
bright and deep within me, I am determined to find a career path that will allow me to explore the world of design and art every day. A number of art
forms are endless and this seems like a daunting task to find just one path that can express the enjoyment and involvement I want to have with art.
Throughout my life I have been endlessly drawing, painting, sculpting and creating––often times I feel almost cursed with such talent to create because
the ability seems endless. I have taken a number of art classes exploring my passions as a High School Student and created many different types of
works including oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings; etching, embossed, and screen printmaking; charcoal, graphite, and pastel drawings; Sculpting
with ceramics and plaster as well as wheel pieces. I find that there is few mediums I have yet to experiment with. I have become accustomed to
Acrylic paintings as I have recently started to create paintings and sell them to community members. I participated in a local art fair and it opened my
eyes to what art

Persuasive Essay On The Art Of Art
Art declares many things. It's a way for people to articulate their views, express their emotions, and communicate to the world in a way that gives
them creative release. This ability to exhibit one's views in a imaginative and safe manner is exceptionally important to society's growth, and to border
this freedom to articulate is detrimental. Art should not be hidden and concealed permanently from the public eye because some see it as vulgar due to
the fact that many people have varying definitions as to what is crossing the line. Only certain, obvious things can be noted as truly indecent.
Censorship is not an easy subject. As an artist, there is often a lot of tolerance for the obscene, from appreciation to detail on the human figure or
the unique renditions of animalistic interaction. However, the majority of the public might find the same things that the artists see as a unique
interpretation as vulgar. It is easy to see that such a standpoint must be taken into more consideration, as the point of indecency can differ greatly
for a conservative Christian compared to a liberal atheist. The two images of what each group considers unseemly would most likely range in their
obscenity, and so it would be difficult to put a line where one should be crossed. "If an image offends very many people, sooner or later someone
will invoke the law, and along with it judges, legislators, policymakers, and the police," quotes Melinda Hinkson in Australia's Bill Henson scandal:
notes on the new cultural attitude to images. Here we have a majority rule, where an image should only have action dealt upon it if enough people
want change. Such censorship is easy to determine when there are pieces depicting derogatory themes, such as child pornography or racial notions.
But there are multiple cases where there are two sides of the story, and it is not as simple.
A statue named Truth is Beauty by Marco Cochrane has recently been constructed in the city of San Leandro, here in the bay area. This statue depicts a
nude woman dancing, her body semi–geometric, and although you can not vividly see the all of the womans body parts, it is not difficult to know that
she is supposed to be depicted as naked. A completely naked figure,
