That one is very robotic unappealing. They shoulda picked the one named Truth which at least looks human.

Mental illness increases the probability that ideas will be original. Whether the idea is creative, however, also depends on the protective intellectual factors needed to steer the chaotic storm.
Or so they say.

Mr. & Mrs. Freepers, Tear down this statue if it ever arrives.
To: sparklite2
LOL.
Given your post,
Picture Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d’Avignon
did he really view the world that way?

I guess I’m a literalist. The farther art gets away from something that could be seen in reality, the less I’m moved by it, and the less I think it is art.
So, Les Demoiselles dAvignon looks to me like a case of Picasso’s mental wackiness overpowering his intellect.
Salvador Dali is weird, but believable. Pollock is ridiculous and belongs in the ‘elephants and five year-olds can do this’ genre. He could not possibly see the world as paint drippings.

“The farther art gets away from something that could be seen in reality, the less Im moved by it, and the less I think it is art.”
It is why I prefer landscapes without people.
much easier to tolerate, in my case, anyway. :)

I'm a major fan of Thomas Cole for his landscapes, but
especially his Course of Empire series (not shown here).
