There is nothing to appreciate about modern art.
There is nothing artistic about abstraction for the sake of abstraction, the only special part is the marketing of these hollow creations.

I can appreciate it cause I have all the culture behind, Italianfag here and art student, we have a lot of art history in our schools.

But I don't appreciate it directly, it is more of an intellectual thing

I'd probably like to have it in my house if that's what you want to know, given that I have the millions it costs

I'm not really into minimalism, but I paint and I have a degree, so yeah, whatever floats your boat. It just takes a long time for me usually to appreciate minimalism and sometimes it just doesn't happen at all.

I appreciate Rothko, Yves Klein, Agnes Martin ...

Fuck being meaningful art at its core is visual, if you have to explain your work for it too be interesting then it sucks, if you don't like this because it looks boring that's fair enough

>>744784443
with great certainty, this is coming from a pleb who doesn't know the first thing about art history or theory.

It's like walking up to a car mechanic and saying: "This tube is ugly, what's it good for? Just remove it!"

>>744784878
Yeah no, I'm not the best example. I'm a slow learner and most of the time I feel stupid about new kinds of art, sometimes I get it immediately but rarely. I feel quite unfit in my field cause I see a lot of people getting excited about (let's say) a painting that at first it doesn't make sense to me. But I think that most of the art nowadays isn't supposed to get you at first sight but instead requires a bit of intellectual work, I really want to feel a connection with the artist, what he was trying to say and how he managed to communicate with its endless tools. It is not something fast

Here is another of my works. This was my final. We had to paint an "untraditional still life" so bowl of fruits wasn't allowed. I chose to paint a blank canvas

>>744785467
"Everything is sculpture" is a very difficult base to judge works. I couldn't tell you if Tuttle is legitimate or not. I have a hard time judging sculpture, because it seems awfully random to me and you could project way too much into what might turn out to be nothing conclusive at all. I'm drunk btw.

>>744783574
That's not how to start an art thread. Some of them are actually good here

>>744785587
funny idea but more graphic design than fine art

>>744785354
For illustration, it would probably help you to get jobs and to boost your credibility. In art, if you suck, you suck. If you actually create decent works, it's a good starting point for scholarships, prices and calls for entries. It works for me. But again, if you suck, there's nothing that can change that.

>>744785587
if you want my honest opinion, it's awful. Both the task you were given and the result.

You've made a joke out of famous Hopper painting and I don't see how you'd blend Mondrian and Hopper effectively without making a fool of yourself to begin with. I really don't appreciate tasks like this from art teachers who probably try to be funny or edgy by doing that.
Go outside, do a lot of pencil and aquarell sketches and paint from your own material. It's much more rewarding.

>>744786038

>>744785712
The painting itself is mediocre and I see that you guys have not spent a single minute discussing how to photograph artworks correctly. The isle has flawed and incorrect perspectives and you were painting this rather carelessly, just to get "everything in the picture" without ever considering if it feels and looks right.
I'd let you flunk to be honest. I reject artwork that has a straightforward conceptual joke to it, like a political caricature. It lacks any sense of longevity.

>>744785867
>>744786191
Well I got an A and I'm premed so idrgaf

>>744785541
Yeah, don't like much that period cause most of the work was in an expressionist way. I like the post WW2 era, mostly the american side, and I like what art has become over the standard media (I'm a multimedia student).

>>744786098
>like you read a womans painting from right to left and a mans left to right.
this is completelynew to me and it frankly sounds rather idiotic. it completely disregards the angle of the portrait. you can't seriously claim that you read every male portrait in a certain way, no matter which angle. not even illustrative advertisement courses are that shallow.

>>744786239
Tfw too intelligent but completely uncultured.

>>744786179
I hope it works out for you. nothing wrong with working commercially. just don't mix the two, because working solely based on your artistic work is the most difficult and requires a very good assessment of your own skills.

just look at the shitty, jiggly lines of the isle. It sucks so bad. No composition, lines all warped and distorted, the floor isn't even well defined, neither is the wall. You are a rookie and you have a long, long way until you paint a decent painting.

well, you are completely outside of the art world. no offense, but teaching children is not a field where you develope your own perspective on higher subjects, rather the opposite, unless you really dive into it every fre minute you get.

from my perspective, you don't necessarily qualify to make judgements on contemporary art, as I presume you don't have the time nor the interest to seriously dive into the subject matter. You are teaching and you want to apply for medical school. There are people out there who dedicate their lives to art history and art theory. I dare say you don't want to assume that you are on that very same level.

>>744788762
I don't teach the kids I take care of a few students with behavioral issues.

Dude no offense to you but art is a hobby not a career. I have hobbies, art isn't one of them.

>>744789087
You are talking out of your ass. I'm not responsible, if you've ever tried and failed to become successful in art. Just because you think it is impossible, it doesn't apply for other people. It's like saying, it's impossible to become a car mechanic. Again, if you suck at art, that's your problem, not mine. I've received scholarships and I've had several of my art works funded, because I don't suck, I actually create good art. I am the living example that you can be successful in art. But I'm only at the beginning. Right now, as I'm writing this, I'm on a paid state scholarship for two months, no expanses, no rent, I even get money for both materials to work and for living in general. This is how you survive doing art: You take it seriously and you excell in it that way. Unlike someone with your attitude who believes "it's impossible" right from the start.

>>744789539
Show us your art oh great artist

This is complete shit. The painter should use the golden ratio at least. Ratio of small rectangle = 1.35294; Big rectangle ratio = 1.1044.

lol yeah not on 4chan, you moron

>just put a red line over it
not falling for that

I don't need to prove anything to you. Why would? Being an artist is a fucking struggle, believe me. It just so happens that it works out for me at the moment and I've studied my ass off to get where I am now. I just won't take the bullshit from a school teacher saying "art is a hobby". to this guy, again: get fucked.

get an acrylic enema and spray shit on a canvas like this guy >>744787603
, then continue complaining how "all art is pretentious". no one will care.

Lmao at least the enema art is real and not imaginary.

I doubt you could show us a picture of your art supplies or studio either b/c it doesn't exist. You sound like a high schooler who has artistic talent so they think "someday I'll be a great artist b/c mom and dad and Mr. Teacher said if I work hard enough I will be!"

>>744790447
Not one of the guys you answered to before, but I'd like to answer to you, I'm also an artist, not a painter tho', and yeah art isn't a fucking hobby, it takes a lot of time and dedication if you wanna be successful. That being said, it's not a reason for you to act like a cunt, art isn't pretentious but you seem to be a little! Even if your works are being funded and you're living out of your art (and that's awesome), you're still at the beginning and haven't developed that much, and could actually fall at any moment
But well we're on 4chan
