Title: Are these images Art? Post by: Jules Ruis on October 21, 2006, 11:57:44 AM May I ask you a question?
Do you think the images in next Galery is Art? http://www.exto.nl/gallery/objects/id/110160.html Jules Ruis. Title: Re: Are these images Art? Post by: titia on October 21, 2006, 12:24:05 PM Dear Jules,
This is a tricky question... To tell if something is art is extremely difficult. I have never seen a real good definition. To tell you if your work is art...is it important? You obviously have a lot of fun making fractals. That is what counts. I am a real life artist, I draw, but even if one is an artist doesn't say all the artist is creating is art. Your question is one that many fractalartist have asked...I have never seen a good answer, but maybe some of you can give a good definition.

All I know is what I like and dislike. If there is something I totally enjoy seeing so much (and it does not cost me an arm and a leg), then I may purchase it for my own enjoyment. Otherwise I just look or not look, depending on the situation. I will leave the definition of "Art" to the politicians and those that have a need to classify such things. ;) Title: Re: Are these images Art?

"Art" is just a name, a title, it doesn't say anything about how one feels or sees it. Titia (http://excalibur.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/media/folder_130/thumb_1298110.jpg) Ultra Fractal Title: Re: Are these images Art? Post by: alan2here on October 25, 2006, 10:17:20 PM I think it is not

Title: Re: Are these images Art? Post by: faceface on October 30, 2006, 09:23:15 PM May I ask you a question? Do you think the images in next Galery is Art? I disagree with all of the above. I think the only question is whether the intention of the creator was to create a piece of art. I think anything that attempts to be art is, by definition, art. A harder question which immediately follows from this definition is weather the result is a successful piece or whether it fails in a certain respect. Asking 'is this art' is a bit like asking 'is this true' or 'is this language'. As I like to say, "you can say what you like, but I know about art". Title: Re: Are these images Art?
