Good/Bad Art
Do you agree with his argument?
Based on the Aesthetics videos, in module 6, How do you think this person views art?
Sample Answer
The person in the video has a very specific and narrow view of art. They believe that art should be beautiful, and that it should be created according to certain rules and conventions. They also believe that art should be objective, and that it should not express the artist’s personal emotions or opinions.
This view of art is consistent with the traditional view of art that was prevalent in the Western world for centuries. However, in recent centuries, there has been a shift towards a more subjective and expressive view of art. This shift is reflected in the work of many modern and contemporary artists, such as Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, and Frida Kahlo.
