ok guys.
What's the current stage of art world today?
Do you think society is moving again towards valueing technique over originality?
Do you think society is moving towards what traditionally has been art?
Do you think society is now looking for beauty in art to be restaured as the goal of art?

Do you think in hundreds of years modern all will exist but only in museums, just like we see middle ages art today?

interesting read.

i think it's really really hard making predictions, especially in the art world because, while there are certain trends, what sells is what people like.
also you will find that there are a ton of people who like all kinds of different stuff. you can be successful with basically anything nowadays.

do what you like, not what you think will be successful.

we're not talking about us, but rather current trends today, though.

my main question is if the current trend is to return to valueing technique again.

>> No.2020213

>>2020210
and my answer is/was that you can hardly predict this kind of thing.
also there already are a ton of people who value technique. you cant draw a clean line here. we live in an art world that is basically open to anything. what sells is what people like.

Interesint link.
TL:DR : Society is getting tired of current art and it seems like depravated shit only upper rich can buy when there is recession.
Or something like that, I'm still reading it.

He seems informed.

He explains how the current contemporanean movement is breaking apart.

anyone that has had anything to do with an average art school will feel as if picasso himself buttraped him.
so in a way, yes.

Look at Lucian Freud and Frances Bacon styles. They have both technique and originality. I don't care about society at large, but I am more focused on what kind of art I want to have on my walls. I think original large works that enhance my quality of life. That is why I am not into the modern contemporary art. It doesn't appeal to me. In 100 years real art will exist in museums and private collections. The digital world is over rated.
