It's not necessary for me to give my opinion because you demand it - the link I posted was a look on how the art world views art and I thought it was applicable to the discussion in this thread that the definition is widely held to be different depending on where one exists in the world.

Re: Hunter Biden Tinfoil issues
Fine. You came up with the gem "true artist" (gave you a chance to explain) and denigrated a brilliant man (Glaser) in the process. Nice work!Kismet wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 2:08 pm It's not necessary for me to give my opinion because you demand it - the link I posted was a look on how the art world views art and I thought it was applicable to the discussion in this thread that the definition is widely held to be different depending on where one exists in the world.

While you're at it, what's your opinion of the Wyeths?
Re: Hunter Biden Tinfoil issues
Having worked directly with Milton Glaser I certainly likely may have more experience with him than you. Please correct me if I'm wrong about that. Many in the fine art world do not consider illustrators and designers as true artists (whatever that means). I have experience in media and publishing and saw it all up close - never said I agreed with the premise.tech37 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 2:14 pmFine.

The Norman Rockwell Museum has some material on the topic
https://www.nrm.org/
"Norman Rockwell was a renowned illustrator and chronicler of American life for more than half a century, documenting the pulse of his times during pivotal moments in twentieth century history. During his career, he navigated many complex business relationships with publishers and advertisers, taking direction from his clients while solving visual problems and asserting his artistry and individualistic perceptions."
Note artistry vs artist references.

Anything new re Biden corruption to get this thread back on course?

I understand the discussion better than you do. You clearly don't have a handle on the difference between art and commercial design. It's why no one would call me an artist, even though I make things by hand.
And why anyone paying attention and knows the history of this commissioned piece understands that Michaelangelo's David is the work of an artisan, not an artist. Because if David is art? There are very few man made things that cannot be viewed as art.
Do I need to explain why? Or are you just bickering for fun?

Right. We misinterpreted what you meant when you called a poster "out of his league".
GTFO. Your nonstop "that's not what I meant" is just tiring.
Try this: I think you're out of your league here. Lets play your stupid, pointless game: am I serious? Am I kidding? Am I being "sarcastic"?
"That's not what I meant". Right. Sure it isn't.

A. I have walked into the sistene chapel. It was fine but perhaps the least impressive part of the museum compared with the ancient history inside that bldg. I was quite unimpressed with the Taj Mahal as well. The mokey tower in Khatmandu over the border in Nepal is far more impressive IMO.

B. Where did I say I didn't think Michaelangelo is an artist. At least youre saying that from experience rather than relying on someone else you bless as correct to tell you, which I've observed frequently here as your position lifted from others as experts while questioning other experts. Further where did anyone else claim MIchaelangelo is not an artist? You introduced that out of left field as if it meant anything in this context.
C. All this aside I think the position remains that most would expect you to either blather or regurgitate some reductive nonsense as to your definition of art hence I suspect no one is pining to hear it.

Re: Hunter Biden Tinfoil issues
The fake disgust and pretense of being superior is jsut a facade for a deficiency. THere's plenty to choose from and probably multiple here but I'll let you fill in that blank.a fan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 3:54 pmRight. We misinterpreted what you meant when you called a poster "out of his league".
GTFO. Your nonstop "that's not what I meant" is just tiring.
Try this: I think you're out of your league here. Lets play your stupid, pointless game: am I serious? Am I kidding? Am I being "sarcastic"?
"That's not what I meant". Right. Sure it isn't.
Now I love those cowboys, I love their gold
Love my uncle, God rest his soul
Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know
Taught me so well, that I grabbed that gold
I left his dead ass there by the side of the road, yeah

Re: Hunter Biden Tinfoil issues
People want to buy his art. He’s not an “artist”. That’s his corruption in this case.
“I wish you would!”

Man, you are Fing ridiculous at times. Who is "We" as in "We misinterpreted"? I was conversing with Kismet, why on earth get involved? Kismet was doing fine without your weird oversight.a fan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 3:54 pmRight. We misinterpreted what you meant when you called a poster "out of his league".

And why read my posts if you don't like them, think they're pointless, or can't follow? Make some sense a fan.

As for Hunter Biden, I have never seen any of his work and have no idea if he's an artist at all.
As long as we are on MOMA and fine art - next time you are in NYC check out Van Gogh's The Starry Night - after seeing it I was blown away what the man captured on canvas a painting. At first, thought the visual effect was the lighting but the more I looked the more transformational it appeared to be. Now THAT'S Fine Art to me. Apologies to Milton Glaser and the I love NY logo. No argument from me on Michelangelo and The Sistine Chapel especially after they cleaned it. It, too, was a commissioned work like David.
BTW - for the record my comment initially regarding ILLUSTRATION vs FINE ART was - "Even his originals MIGHT be considered true art." which isn't how you subsequently characterized it IMHO. An example why I HATE this format for meaningful discussion.

Re: Hunter Biden Tinfoil issues
Open your mind to other voices, no wait don’t pay attention or listen in a community. Oh wait, I don’t know what I’m saying I’ll just be a rude d*ck and fake some arrogance to cover up the massive holes in me.

Re: Hunter Biden Tinfoil issues
I still prefer the Met over Moma though being a massive fan of Rene Magritte I obviously have to hit MOMA occasionally. Debating as I’m bringing my sister for the first time next month for 4-5 days. Whereas I lived there I have to managed her tastes and preferences along with her desire to see how I/we lived in NYC*. Moma may be more accessible than the Met for a kid but man the Met has so much fainting stuff in it. Too bad I can’t show her the old graffiti art by the dude who died of aids in the 80s. Hard rock lifted his work for designs way back. Want to say his name was Keith Harding but forgot since seeing an exhibit at the museum in Golden Gate Park SF a few years back. That would be cool. If it were my son we’d do the subway run from the Warriors but I don’t think my fighter would appreciate that other than she’d be perfect in the bad a** sneaky killer chick gang downtown (or around flatiron? Been about 7-9yrs since I last watched that classic)Kismet wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 4:34 pmActually, I don't find his oversight weird at all.tech37 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 4:18 pmMan, you are Fing ridiculous at times.

Gets tiring and redundant after a while but to see classics there’s nothing like a multi month backpacking trip around Europe. I still found that macabre religious art from the Belgians and west Germans you could find in some Benelux country museums to be cool.
* (NYC trip -though she doesn’t like steak or rice pudding so I’m f**ked with regard to taking her to Lugers and Rice to riches as I’d hoped. She just blew up an expensive dinner at a joint here run by this tv chef Kevin Rathbun because I insisted she try some cranes spinach which turned into a screaming match in public between my wife and 9yr old daughter as my son and I were trying to enjoy our surprisingly fatty dry aged porterhouse for two)
