[{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487778305858","data":"Our understanding of art has shifted with times, our perception of what it is has changed, and a degree in Fine Arts has become a more scorned subject with time. It's a phenomenon I do not particularly understand. In societal context, paintings, and the like are considered to be feminine, and because we live in a patriarchal society, there seems to be a consensus that imagery, images, paintings, do not lie central to a method of studies. <\/p>The problem is however, there has never been anything for central to studies than art and imagery. The imagery of words provides context to every societal study we undertake. Heck, even the point of an age can be made by viewing of art, of the statements made by artists. The demands made on conventional structure by the Surrealists comes to mind, as does the foreboding sense of imagery in the Logos of today. Fine arts doesn't often concern itself with brand management, but, as anyone in advertising will tell you, there is nothing more important. Check, the minimalism style used in Medium's logo, and the minimalist style preached by almost all media sites, including the J in Jacobin, a minimalist art form comes to mind. Why? Because the entire context of the brand has to be put into a simple image that the people associate with it. Similar work goes behind how to decode sequential art, comics. <\/p>The distinguished art of Alex Ross, versus what kind of art J. G. Jones drew, versus what a virtual superstar like Mark Waid drew. These are important, they form the backbone of history. While, we read the slander of the spaces in Moulin Rouge, the particular label of fame it brings in, all exhausted and in ordeal offers a different picture, a context driven in counter-current.<\/p> As does Picasso and Dali, the cubist and the surrealist, the differences, between the art forms immense, yet, personalities convergent. Fine arts, has always provided a context to historical and social studies, and even to science that we cannot have. The study of art forms and their development in different parts of the world is an indication of the philosophy and the evolution of myths, of what they're depicting. There may be thesis written on the subject of how this contextuality changes everything, gives you a new view of the world that is moving round the clock. And then there is the medium, and what it wishes to express. The brushstrokes differ from painter to painter, and we study the way it evolves, we give importance, and suddenly we are in a new world, a world, where realism fights with swords and shields against abstract-ness, and we reach conjectures of beauty. <\/p>Fine arts define these, create a space for conversation, and then aid in re-telling of our entire story. Art, is not redundant, it is not lost, and though minimalism gets a bad rep, and performance art, and installation art is vilified, mostly the context in lost in simple conversations about what we consider as \u201celegance\u201d, the discourse shifts to beauty and realism again, and again we have passages after passages about contextual understanding. Ink calligraphy to the improvisation to create canvases on ink and then the spilling on oil and oil paint, and then the snowstorm. Politics, romance, everything depicted within confines of a canvas. <\/p>By dismissing fine arts we dismiss the entirety of this contextual understanding, we dismiss out of hand the poetics that have been running parallel, and some times in opposition to our society, and this must not be allowed. Art needs survival, and no maybe, its not a developing job sector, but, there is work to be found, maybe in Advertisement agencies alone, but, then what illustrates modern art better than simple ads?<\/p>"}]
