Incomprehensible art

I saw a sentence on the Internet, what I can’t understand is called art, and what I can’t appreciate is fashion.

After all, when it comes to art, even in a crowded exhibition site, "appreciating" works with strange shapes and unknown meanings, my head is full of big question marks.

When we went to watch a film festival in the province that day, I suddenly found a huge green curtain, so I quietly opened the curtain and got in to take a look. As a result, there was a video playing in it. It was a very large video projected onto the screen. A machine was playing all the time in the video. Eggs kept popping out of the machine, and then the eggs rolled down one by one. So repeatedly, why is this video playing? I just kept looking there, wanting to see what happened. After reading it countless times, I still can’t seem to understand it.

Several people came in and looked there several times, but they couldn’t understand it. In the end, everyone discussed each other for a while, but they didn't see the outcome.

This reminds us that today is a film festival. Everyone looked at each other and smiled. Perhaps the organizer of this video had no intention of revealing anything at all, but just recorded the process. Sometimes, art is something that is incomprehensible and intangible.

I have also heard criticism from some veteran photographers. In fact, many of our photos present completely different pictures from different people’s perspectives.

Several times in our small-scale photography competition. In the end, the most outstanding works that were awarded the Excellence Award were all incredible works, at least in my opinion. If you don't listen to the introduction, you will never understand what is being said. I just say that I am too shallow and have not yet entered this perspective of appreciation.

The hand on display has received mixed reviews. A circle of people seems to be appreciating this work from a very unique perspective, and the unique language of judgment is also unfamiliar. Such works have also received a lot of criticism. Some people think this is grandstanding.

When a work like this comes out, the author himself emphasizes the philosophical color and does not pay attention to the practice of photography.

They criticized this as deviating from reality and being too abstract.

As Christopher Nolan said: "Don't try to understand, feel it".

Perhaps when the artist expresses it to the world, he may be able to see some "supernatural" existence.

This is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

In the history of Western art, Duchamp's "Fountain" has been discussed for a hundred years. This signed urinal subverted the traditional art of the time. People question, can ugliness also become art?

A layman can watch the excitement, but an expert can watch the door. As long as art can bring people enjoyment of beauty and spiritual pleasure, can meet spiritual and cultural needs, and has high art appreciation value and collection significance, it is elegant art.

But it is not that everything that is incomprehensible is elegant art. Some art cannot be accepted by the masses and cannot please the soul, but is disgusting. It is a waste of art and garbage in art.

For example, a certain person claims to be a master of calligraphy. He is eager for fame and fortune, and wants to win the attention of the world. He has a nervous attack, yells and scribbles on the paper. The art that no one can understand is simply "ghost painting". . Showing off in front of others: "This is elegant art, you can't understand it, you can't appreciate it" is just a kind of self-deception.

Art should first of all please people's hearts, only then can we talk about artistic cultivation.
