The Arts in NYC

Different paintings, different feelings

I am a big fan of "greenery," when, of course, relating to the enviornment. Therefore, I enjoyed works of art that promotes a sense of appreciation for our surroundings. One, from the Chelsea art gallery jump out, like this one. I think this one takes place in the bottom of the ocean, which is where sulfur vents, which protects marine life from freezing to death.

I don't like art work that is full of dull colors, like white, black, and especially, gray. I believe that gray is totally absurd to use in paintings because it doesn't represent anything. One example, in Chelsea, was:

I also like paintings such seem to demonstrate a path of creativity. In accord to what I mentioned in the "Natural Voice... not grueling memorization," I think that this form of artwork, which I borrowed from Neelu's "Photo's from the galleries," should come from one's mind, and not abusing the ideas of painters in the past. A perfect such example, which goes beyond simplicity, is the art form demonstrated below.

Another painting, which I particularly didn't like is below. I don't appreciate this one because it seems to demonstrate the disorder in society. This is shown by the disorganized sand, and the poles, which seem to be tilted sideways.

I agree with everyone that art may, and in most instances, should have more than one interpretation. Such can be also done in the last painting. One can say that the last painting demonstrates a sense of isolation for the observer. I also agree that art should arouse some sort of emotion like what Andrew had mentioned in his reflection.
