...The definition and evaluation of art has become especially problematic since the early 20th century. Richard Wollheim distinguishes three approaches: the Realist, whereby aesthetic quality is an absolute value independent of any human view; the Objectivist, whereby it is also an absolute value, but is dependent on general human experience; and the Relativist position, whereby it is not an absolute value, but depends on, and varies with, the human experience of different humans.Wollheim 1980, op. cit. Essay VI. pp. 231-39. An object may be characterized by the intentions, or lack thereof, of its creator, regardless of its apparent purpose. A cup, which ostensibly can be used as a container, may be considered art if intended solely as an ornament, while a painting may be deemed craft if mass-produced. Read full entry

What is considered good art I am doing a study of "Faith
and Reason" written by Pope
John Paul II. Tonight we were
talking about objectivity and
subjectivity. Art was the
example used to discuss one's
own perception of good art and
bad art and the universal
perception of it. I am
confused by the subject of
art. I personally think good
and bad art is subject to
one's own personal opinion.
Can anyone explain to me what
is 'good art'? Like
Michelango, Picaso & Van Gogh
versus modern art? And by
whose standards is 'good art'
classified as such?
I've never taken an art class,
I only draw privately once in
a while but I don't consider
myself an artist. What books
or websites can I go to to
learn about art?

good art is art that during the Renaissance time artists painted! Michelangelo, Da Vinci as well as Raphael as excellent examples of good art! they are the kind of art that people want to see, apppreciate, where time was put into it, where there is always a theme, where the colors and techniques start to vary with the change of time and where one actually look at a painting and interpret what he or she sees because it looks so realistic and human like! the good art has high expectations and none the less, and take Michelangeo and the Sistine Ceilin and compare that to Picasso-not that i have something against him! Michelangelo shows expressions, emotion, light, darkness, did a fresco on the cupola of a chapel as well as had a theme for it and nailed it! everything when you look at it seems in its place, as though realistic, the colors vibrant yet pastel, the themes changing and the mystery is still there. Picasso on the other hand as well as other modern artists consider art taking some paint and throwing it on the canvas or making copies of the mona lisa face multiple times in color! i call that a kid's work because i can give my brother and his friends some paint and canvas and they could come up with the same stuff the so called "artists" come up with the same things or even better! art in todays society especially good art is what Europeans have in their museums such as the Louvre and D'Orsay and at Versailles too! that is art, good art to be more specific since it is not something done in a hurrty but rather with sophistication and with class! that is what sets the two arts apart: good art has more class to it while the modern art does not and yes art art defined by the society and their standards as always! |

What art schools in Europe Hello. I would be glad if You
shared your opinion about
studies of visual arts in high
European art schools, be it
academy or university.
I'm actually looking for
studies in English language,
and I'm particularly
interested in schools,
providing combined course of
fine arts, some practical
things, like design, and art
history.
Thank you.

For an English speaking art school, check out Glasgow School of Art. That's where I'd go for graduate school if I had any money. Also check out Edinburgh College of Art. |
