What is art? Art is aboveboard privacy.

Recently, in the circle, you can often see the debate between photography and art, which is quite interesting. Today is February 2 nd, the day when the dragon looks up, and then the spring breeze is ten miles. Let's talk about this topic and blow away the sulk in my heart.

Judging from my personal values, this topic is untenable and impossible to talk about. It is a false proposition that has been thoroughly debated for 100 years.

Let me tell you a story first. I used to have a friend who studied oil painting, was a scholar, and was born in art. When we first started to play photography together, we had a bad feeling about photography, thinking that photography was only a medium of art, and it was not art at all compared with painting. A few years later, I found that he fell in love with photography and took many good photos. It can be seen that the previous one was not true, and later he fell in love with it, which is also true.

Photography or that photography. Nothing has changed, but his own feelings and feelings about photography have changed.

Mr. Mu Xin has made many accurate interpretations of art: art is aboveboard privacy. These interpretations are not overbearing, self-centered or imposed on others. They are just faint, telling themselves there and letting others comment. His or his, yours or yours.

Now people talk about art, all of which are the art above temples or the art in the hands of museum collectors. Everyone is rarely influenced by art itself, and it is rarely art itself that makes him feel loved, spoiled or obsessed. The artistic value in everyone's mind is generally equivalent to the commercial market value.

But the actual situation is: market value can indeed prove artistic value, but artistic value has nothing to do with commercial market value. The former can be proved to be objective, while the artistic value of the latter is subjective and does not need to be proved. Rudely speaking, I like mine. What do you care?

In my personal values, not only photos are art, but even a tree and a stone are your art as long as you like them. Note that what I'm talking about here is your art, not others'. Putting one's subjective feelings into the objective public world to gain recognition is a stupid thing in itself, and it is really unnecessary.

For example, if I shoot Kunqu opera and post it online, someone will leave a message saying, how can anyone like such an old-fashioned thing? Kunqu opera is not art because some people don't like it?

What is art? Once it falls into the theoretical standard, there are no rules and regulations. It's still terrible to think about it. Things that are very private, emotional and subjective, if you have to let the outside world impose a cover, you may not live long and you will suffocate.

I have been told literature and accurate expression before. I told him that words themselves can't express meaning accurately. The words look very precise and in place, but in fact, even the tip of the iceberg of emotions can't be expressed. For example, I will say a word here: OK. Few people can know what I am thinking. I need to add a lot of bedding, symbols and decorations to help express it, but the actual auxiliary expression is still inaccurate. But if you are my friend who knows me, you can judge what I mean more accurately than people who don't know me, so literature is actually a anthropology.

Our ancestors are much smarter than us. They won't waste so much saliva to argue, but to prove themselves right. In a word, it can be summed up in eight words: the book is not full of words, and the words are not full of meaning.

Therefore, the argument of artistic proposition is untenable. Art and culture are only suitable for discussion in small circles on the basis of existing cognitive level. If you need to demonstrate that it is not suitable, you should evacuate immediately.
