Art is like death. My teddy bear when I was four emerged into prophylactic adulthood as the shadow of the ramblas. I defecate on the ruins of the claustrophobic empire of two fat men picked by chance.
My last lover died in the pullman car of the train taking her to Toronto. The one before that hanged herself in a quiet sylvan corner of the Black Forest. She provided well for the falcons who had always been her friends. My image of eternity is the face of the child of abstruse and impregnable theology. My current lover is someone well known, but not as my lover, whom I meet every day to bring them a package of olives.

All art is anti-art, just as the way up is the same as stepping in a river twice. What is problematic (but only in an ontological context) is the juxtaposition of art with anti-art when viewed in conjunction with the subtext that all art harbors. Because of the superstructure of civilization with which each of us is burdened, we no longer feel art instinctually; we now astheticize art because of the inherent dichotomization of modern culture. I like rabbits. We purchase art; we adopt art with the same hushed tones as Reverend Manner in a bank. We perch ass art on our pedestals as an investment. Our investment in art becomes our self expression, unless the art is itself expressionist, in which case it is self impression. My mailman only has one eye, but he can still see fine. The imperialist underpinnings of our culture, with which we struggle every day, and which still inform our view of world, self, and art, brings us to consider art a means of looting ano!

Art is the opiate of the fews. To those few people in the world, or many, who feel the need
to express themselves and relieve the tension that is felt when living in such a world as ours.

It helps me to have an outlet for my emotions, a positive one, a place to go when my life goes to hell.
I am an artist, but not by choice. Becuase the state of my emotions is always so badly off
that I need something to put them in.

Yeah, well, I did Art and sound and performing arts(I'm also a clown) but I love wearing my Cat-hat to pubs to infuriate Right-to-lifers, and in dealing with their frothing screaming rants, I actually have an art of seeing how worked up they can get and then completely calm them down in 10 seconds..

Art is god(dess). Or whatever. Without art I would go (more) insane.

I guess this is were you either say something meaningful & deep or rambel about how we should kill the artists. I'm not a sesoned art critic...but I love surealism and realisim(kind of a contrast,eh?) For me to like it, art can't be chaste or muted...it has to be truth.

Depending on the art. If it makes me feel anything, anything at all. It is art.
But I am not an artist. Recovering one maybe. Art reminds us that we are more than walking corpses.

Art depicts our emotions; our fears, our desires, our anger, ourselves. The ulimate personality test.

Fetishized into a 'respectable' institution by
giving it a title "ART." This removes the "artist"
from the human, like a Doctor or a Mechanic. Not
everyone is a Doctor, but everyone is an Artist,
until you isolate this basic element of humanity
as a career or a type of person.

What is art? My Dad liked velvet pictures of anything, but hated my blacklight posters in the 70's, so I ask what's the difference. Art is like God, esoteric, or like any number of things in the phenomenal world that are wholly subjective (at least in this reality.) I mean some people like Warhol,(personally, I prefer gazing into my kitchen pantry), some like stuff that looks very much to me like something that once graced the bottom of a cage, hey it's your brain, and if you want to have taste these days, you gotta like things that are absolutely meaningless, ugly, formless (reminds me of my ex-wife)...er, ah well anyhow I guess you might have guessed that I have little use for modern art (honey, did I use the Picasso as a birdcage liner?)...essentially, give me an impressionist, or a realist, but leave the zoo cage liners out of my portfolio...they're just a lot of Bosch.

art is. . . well, comparable to cheese in that
art is made for little to no reason whatsoever
excepting of course the inflation of the ego
that an "artist" gets when someone purchases
their "artwork". "Art", however, seems to be
a fairly intricate part of society, besides.
For some, "art" is a way of expressing emotion,
however cheesy. Without art, there would be chaos
and chaos breeds change, and so mayhaps there
could stand to be a little change here and again.
Pro
art, and this is purely a subjective reasoning and treatise, elevates, alleviates, absurdises (no such word) and is what constitutes the difference between us and the great unwashed
