Re: Ze Art

Well a definition of art isn't that easy

In my own personal opinion art is described as something that the artist creates to express his/her thoughts/feelings/ideas/whatever cause the artist needs to express himself/herself.
If music is only created with the intent to generate money out of it, i won't describe this as art even if it expresses something and is "good". If alot of money is generated out of it, good for the artist, but as long as the art is created while thinking "what do i have to say and how should i do that" ( i used "have to say" instead of "want to say" on purpose) it's art.

Personal taste, effort needed to create it, puplic response or financial success aren't important when defining art.

Well at least that is my opinion about the thing called art.

ps: I can understand that some ignorants don't want good punk music to be art but jazz?
How can anyone say that people like Miles Davis or Glenn Miller didn't create art?
