Month: October 2016

When we went to the forth gallery, I saw there were a lot of cotton material. At that time, I immediately recalled last summer, when I came here to take pre-college course. Last year, I took fashion communication at Parsons, my professor took us to Donna Karen’s warehouse to take a look at what designers’ storehouse would look like. I was really amazed by how many clothes there were, and it was my very first time to see a well-known designers’ depot. As a result, I remember this scene very clearly. After one whole year, I came to this art gallery, I got amazed too. Nevertheless, this time is in different perspective, I was thinking it looked so familiar with what I saw last year. Nonetheless, I saw similar things in varied places. One is in warehouse, in contrast, the other one is at art gallery, it feels so ironic. These two are very much alike, but in two entirely different spots, one is for appreciate, one is for store things. I then questioned myself what is art, it is a really difficult question, nobody knows the exactly correct answer. To a lot of people, it seems like if you clean the background up nicely then it will become an art, and that is why lots of them only think the art pieces are cool or strange but do not understand what the notion is. Everybody has different opinions, in my perspective, I think art should convey the artist’s idea, and no matter what method or how normal the material is. The most important thing is how the material and the composition could express his or her idea. Nowadays, more and more talented people are doing things that related to art, but not all of them really indicate their idea. In my opinion, some artists should step back and learn more about themselves, I personally do not think art is an easy stuff, which many people could do.
