🤔 I really liked your perspective in this article. IMHO, art is very subjective and depends on how one interprets it. Modern art is perhaps one which is open to several interpretations. Each time you stare at it, you get a different meaning out of it according to your own changing perspectives. Sometimes ambiences too make a difference. A huge posh building may become a bit boring to some after some time and when they suddenly face some very ordinary thing they would appreciate it. I’ve seen many rich tourists from developed countries visiting my country are happy to spend quite a good money for a rural tour where they would be introduced to the lifestyles of poor people, they will be accommodated in some hut with almost no facility, will be served food cooked over burning coal or woods, in earthen ware, ride a bicycle on a kaccha (unpaved) road, pulling out drinking water from a well etc. All these are very normal and ordinary chores for the poor but ultra-rich enjoy those bizarre things. Perhaps their very bizarreness & oddity drive them there. But no person who is regularly living that kind of life is enjoying it and wishes to come out of it. So, it’s a human nature to appreciate a change for a while (in any direction). But it’s not the same with everyone 🤔.

Thus most art (poems, songs, music, paintings etc.) rely heavily on the intelligence of the viewer / reader / listener and not everyone can appreciate them …in fact they are not meant for everyone.
Just as you take a guide along with you when visiting a historic monument, you should avail the services of an art-guide who can make us understand the importance of these artworks. Every art work has some story behind it, without a context it’s difficult to understand. And perhaps the first picture you posted here is incomplete without a similar artwork placed in the same room. Sometimes, their placing makes a lot of difference. E.g. when you put down your glasses for the second picture here, it enhanced that art and gave some intensity to its meaning. 😇 And you were very artistic in putting down your glasses to give some serious meaning to that art. The way you placed your glasses, it’s direction, it’s angle, it’s closeness to discs, it’s contrasting color etc. are just perfect and it can’t be done so beautifully in any other way 😇 😇. So you are an artist which the world hasn’t yet recognized.😊😊😊

And I’d like to add that you can interpret this comment of mine only if you are smart enough. Did you know anything about the etymology of art? The word “art” was derived from the word “smart”. After putting aside some mind (sm), what you were left with was “art”. And sculpting is just an extension of the word “skull” …it’s an effort to add up some meat back! So don’t make it too complicated. Art is very simple, if you know what simplicity is. 😉 😉😉😉😉
