It's incredibly important anon, but what "art" is, is not just merely high culture, though that is its greatest development and manifestation. See "The Creative Explosion" book about neolithic man.

How important is a meaninful life to appreciate art?
This question haunts me at nights.

It seems pretty important.

art is not what you think. what humanists call art is nothing more than orders form the ruling class to ''artists''.

With humanism rising with the bourgeois, the merchant class wanted to show off by having paintings too. So the bourgeois did like everybody before, they put an order for a painting to the artists and they produce it.

But the bourgeois are just hedonists, they only care about sex.This is why sex is more an depicted in the humanist paintings and why women love it.

Now for the technique is from geometry. The greeks at all the geometry needed, but was lost.

With the revival by the bourgeois of the greek academia, in order to larp as greeks and muh enlightenment, they discovered geometry again and they applied it to paintings.

The hard getting good pleases very much the hedonists, and so the bourgeois continued to request paintins like those.

I did not say it has no impact on one, it‘s just not actually relevant to find meaning in life. If your life is so empty the emotions induced by art already make it feel noticeably less empty then you have a lot of others things to work on instead of going to galleries. Art has it‘s purpose but bringing meaning to your life is only a secondary purpose of it. It might act as a reminder though.

Without music and literature, I would've comitted suicide a long time ago. Since all religion is nothing but a noble lie, it is art and only art that soothes our ever more fragmented souls.

Society doesn't function without art because society without art can't give humans all the experiences they need to flourish.
