Have you seen a Rothko in person? Have you given it the time it requires? I doubt that you have. Rothko once turned down a two million dollar commission because he felt the place the paintings were to be installed were going to be nothing more than decorations.

were being deluded and sapped from our natural creativity and being fooled into beveling that this is art money will destroy us

Have you seen Rembrandt's late self portrait? The one with the giant circles? Or any of Turner's later works where it's essentially smears of paint? Painters have always wanted to go towards abstraction, it just wasn't feasible until late in the game due to how they had to make a living and the way the materials were.

This is from Altamira, it's unknown what it is supposed to be, there are thousands of these kinds of things in almost every single cave painting site over the entire world. Experts know they are not a written language, but what their function is they can't figure out. One recent theory is they are abstractions, real things from the natural world that have been reduced visually to their essence.

in your opinion what is more important in art: technique or expression? obviously the key is meshing both but if you had to choose which do you appreciate more?
Lincoln Ortiz
Carter Hughes
I think famous artists have earned the right to be smug.
Jordan Peterson doesn't understand anything of what he is talking about. He doesn't understand what Modern Art is, he doesn't understand what Postmodernism is, and he doesn't understand what Marxism is. How he can even have the gall to call himself anything but a charlatan is beyond me.
Anthony Roberts
Technique is an extension of expression. You choose the technique that best allows you to express what you need to.
Hunter King
Gavin Campbell
Technique is more important. Any idiot can throw paint on a canvas these days and call is expression. Technique is a true display of talent and skill refined through hard work and dedication.
Justin Anderson
>posts vomit on a canvas
>thinks his opinion is not trash
Henry Gonzalez
I would have to say expression you need to feel something while creating your art I've always been a fan of emotion if there is no emotion in what you do then it just feels blatant and assembly lined it takes the joy out of it.
William Smith
never heard it put that way but I appreciate your input and honestly would agree with you
Angel Gray
but art at its core is about expression
Colton Bailey
Except that, no, it isn't, and no, they can't.

look closely at their limbs, they have detail for muscles such as their calves and makes them more than stick figures to me, besides their elongated proportions
Tyler Rivera
then what's the point of art to you?
Jason Parker
Is this like fallout alt art? Or is fallout referencing this picture?

you need raw and genuine emotion or else just might as well be an unfeeling bot I don't step out of my zone unless I feel something "right"

Benjamin Wright
His ego is huge and can't deal with the fact most people don't see his "art" as very impressive or good. He's like that guitarists who listens to metal that shreds so fast he thinks it's great but it's jumbled up noise
Grayson Cox

>a rock with a nose dates back 5000 year
wow impressive
Ethan Ross
If that were the case then why didn't signatures appear until the Renaissance.
I haven't posted a single thing I made.
Jackson Hill
They are a product of their own reality they created themselves and emerged into this world on their own accord
Jordan Allen
You just posted boring art to look at
Brandon Allen
because signatures are corny and degenerate

Population size could be a theory

>Painters have always wanted to go towards abstraction
Interesting claim.

It's carved marble that would have then been painted, but due to the amount of time that has passed the paint has completely disappeared off of them. And it is rather impressive. Some of the Cycladic figures are towering marble sculptures.
How are they corny or degenerate?
Opinions are like assholes.
I fail to see the connection between population size and artist signatures.
Looking back at the extreme stylization of the past, tracing it into the work of the Baroque and Romantic artists, then into the Postimpressionists, I would comfortably make the argument that abstraction was an inevitability. And I would site specifically Rembrandt, Goya, and Turner.
Bentley Kelly
Well not entirely, there are a few that has some faint traces and little tiny bits still on them.
Camden Mitchell
Ian Young
Low population < everyone in town knows ur a good painter
Old times < nobody really read so no need for written signature.
I thought u we're being mister smart guy but now I see ur just a hipster

Jacob Wright
Why is your argument against my claim that art is about immortalizing one's genius and will is that signatures are relatively new aspect to art, but also praise the genius of 5000 year old sculptures and cave paintings? Clearly a contradiction there. Signatures are degenerate and corny because they assume that the ego attached to the genius is relevant, when in 5000 years a scribbled name on the piece will mean little more than something to decipher and is ultimately arbitrary. Why should the ego matter when the art itself speaks for itself.
Noah Anderson
Oh, no. It wasn't that. It was more an issue that art was seen as just another skilled trade, like a carpenter. When Michelangelo signed his Pieta it was considered shocking and he was considered overly arrogant.
You claimed that it is to "immortalize one's genius and will." If it is to do that then, no, the art doesn't speak for itself, it speaks for you, and if it speaks for you then it is your ego that is on display. Hence why signatures are important.
A 5000 year old carved marble and the paintings in caves are to be praised because of how gorgeous they are, and what they can teach us about our past. And the ego is present even as far back as the caves. Hand print after hand print are found in the caves. It is one of the few commonalities found among all painted cave sites in the entire world.
Jack Sullivan
Immortalizing genius in art transcends the concept of names and the ego. That’s the point. People who never knew of you will still appreciate the accumulation of skill and dedication you poured out into your craft long after you or any record of your personhood perishes.

Levi Martin
These days nothing vanishes, so art can no longer be an imortalization of some genius lost to time.
