Art must change its setting We have had enough of indifference, of incompetent or bribed critics, and of seeing the same places of artistic oligarchy. |
It is about time Art took on a Social Function!
Galleries and museums are palces where art is performed
as a cult. This constraint has given art an asphyxial element, with the
sole objectives of being of social prestige and profit. |
Artists have betrayed Art
Art
has missed out on some important objectives which it could have aimed at
reaching in this modern age.
In particular, sculpture, inserted within an urban context, could have been
considered as a counterbalance, as oppose to the bombardment of images which we
are normally subjected to, not forgetting the character and the embellishment
displayed in unknown and somewhat slumish spaces. All of this without ever
running out of banality or, worse still, vulgarity.
