A Day Without Art
No comments yet - CommentLuv enabled! join the Forum Community, check your MailWhat would life be like if there was no art? Can you imagine what that would be? Think about an average day. You wake up in the morning, maybe to music on your clock radio. Perhaps you read the paper or online news stories. Both the paper and internet have ads enhanced with graphic design. You dress in clothing conceived of by a designer, and perhaps adorn yourself with accessories and jewelry. Maybe you go out for breakfast to a restaurant with a creative menu. Art, or creative expression is everywhere.
Last weekend I visited a series of “open studios” in my area. The art ranged from blown glass, to paintings, sculpture, ceramics, jewelry, handmade paper, and so much more. Not all the work was great, some was unique, thoughtful, playful, inspirational. The visual arts, the performing arts such as theater, spoken word, and dance, the written arts–literature, poetry, plays, and the ever-present movies or films, are all forms of creative expression that are so much a part of our lives that we really could not live with out them.
