The Problems of Art

I’s very difficult to see art as an important or essensial thing, because of art has been understanding as an entertainment or just a part of ownship. As an entertainment, art is often used to make our heart happy or our mind become calm, help someone escaping from any problems of life or get stress off. As an ownship, art is used to held someone’s social state up. In this two cases, the importance of art fall into exterior happiness or beauty. Or, art is viewed just as a substitution.

People who live in art (artist) face the same problem: to create or govern an essential art in the human’s civilization isn’t simple matter. “Art has been ended”, said Arthur Danto, Victor Burgin, Joseph Kosuth, Foster, or Adorno. However, human’s life has been arranged by market’s power. In this era, art has crached by market’s strategy or market’s policy to gain much benefit in politic, economy, social, or religion dimension. Art in its serious state/form too, known as the contemporary art, is difficult to be differed, either it is the really art or the one that expressed from the distortion of man who just looking for popularity childishly. It's difficult to find the category to see the sublim really art. So, for some people, if it’s exist, art just held in sublime thing, out of this is “nothing and meaningless”.
