Hello everybody
People, poor or rich, educated or not, ugly or pretty, old or young, everybody is concerned by the art.
I think that our feelings and our own history have an influence in regard of so many artistics expressions in the world, in the space and the time.
I would like talk and exchange with you about that.
See you

Hello
Do you know their art ?
I was very impress ed by their totems but also their jewellery and their designs. I have never seen this kind of expression somewhere else and I think that when we have the chance to look at this form of art we receive a strong energy because there is a sense in all their expressions.
I think also that the art may be ephemeral and the Aboriginals in Australia lived with this sort of art which is plenty of sense and very close to the dream.

Hello,
I think that people who have the opportunity to travel and discover other cultures and appreciate their art are very lucky. A great sensitiveness and generosity is required when you watch a piece of art and when you are able to say:"That's beautiful or impressive...". To me it means that you give a real value to what you are witnessing. You are conscious that it is the product of a community, its identity. You must be tolerant to accept and love what is different from what belongs to your own culture.
Art is the expression of what comes from the heart and the mind. It is a language. We should learn it.

Hello Aimen
As you said so well, I think we should learn the language of the heart and try to understand how is the real life and not only the simple illusion of it. It's so difficult but try it and sometimes we receive so much in a few seconds that it's a great moment of emotion !

Hello Lethidee,
For me, the perfect expression of art is called : Nature !
Whatever shape the Creator of everything might have, we all try to copy
Nevertheless, it's hard to give a definition of that word, art...
" Set of means used in order to produce an aesthetic creation" ? bof...
In that case, what does the word 'aesthetic ' stand for ? Beauty is not absolute.
My nephew has offered me a drawing he made at school. I prefer it to a picture by Kandisky for it represent
Eh, one person, one taste
(To each his own.)To get back to nature, a painting depicting a scenery of Alaska in fall, you find it beautiful. Being yourself in this scenery in Alaska, you FEEL it beautiful.

Hello gewurz and everybody
Thank you for your answer and your opinion about the idea of beauty.
I think that art is in anything and everywhere if we are able to and if we take the time just to feel it.
It may be with our eyes, but not only, also with our hands and all our body. It's a question of osmose and not judgement, we are just a short time intensely inside or with the object of our attention because it attracts our attention or our disgust but it is a revealing or ourselves.

Hello hamidou
When I was younger, I used to prefer watching many impressionist paintings and Cézanne, Monet, Renoir, Degas were the best paintors for me because I was impressed by their way of expression and the feeling of harmony.
But now, I changed my mind and I appreciate more Matisse, Dufy, Picasso, Chagall because their expressions are full of questions without evident answers but the feelings are there also but different and I think that art is like life, always in movement and with a lot of questions without answers.

Hello !
The first things I discovered as 'beautiful or ugly' / as far as I can go back in my memory, were 'voices' : I think this was my first encounter with art. Perhaps it explains why I love music, why I react so quickly to voices, why I love poetry when it's musical, why I enjoy silence above all : it's when silence settles that you have a chance to hear the inimitable song of a tiny bird called the wren.

Hello Jardin
When I lived in the countryside I was lucky to be in a silent area with olive trees and wild nature around the house and I appreciated too the silence. I think it is more and more rare to be in this state of simply beauty and internal peace and osmose with anything.
You are very lucky.

I like drawing. I like painting. I like music. I like the songs of the birds, I like nature and all what it gives us. But I find that the real beauty of nature is the others’ ways of communication.
Yes, this is art the way they talk, they express themselves, they remain silent, they shout, they react to things and thoughts. That makes me wonder why and mostly how. How they can do this or that. How they can behave the way they do, so different from one another, how and how….Then I discover deeper parts of them. What they are or what they may be. And I find it amazing to know that no one in that world can be like another one. And that everyone gives a sort of treasure, a treasure of his own. Nice or not, it doesn’t matter, but always good to be known.
Well, for me, human being is the form of art I like best. "Something" we’ll never stop discovering and that never gives us time to feel bored.
I can draw nature or anything else in next to no time, but I need ages to get the real expression of a person down on my paper. And I find this…exciting.
See what I mean Lethidee?

Hello everybody,
That's right, you leave us speechless serena. I was expecting your reaction. You have the ability to catch what is best in a humain being and what makes him original and unique. You see things from the eye of an artist who feel the need to represent what he has captured. That's a priviledge and a gift given to you. It reminds me of L.De.Vinci's "Mona Lisa" Whose smile and gaze remain mysterious.
I have an exercise of art for you all. It was an exercise given to us at school, I was about 15 at the time. We were assigned to illustrate through a painting the poem by Arthur Rimbaud, "Le Bateau Ivre". how would you manage to make the best illustration of the poem?
I will tell you later how I illustrated it, that was a little funny.

Hello Aimen
I don't remember exactly of the words written by Rimbaud in "Le bateau ivre" but I find very funny to work just about the poem's title :
It might be just a bottle with a message inside it, lost in the middle of the ocean
or
a ghosty vessel damaged in the dark night lit only

I think something is a work of art if it inspires
Human beings have senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell) and I think that art is about stimulating those senses in a way that creates sensations of intellectual gratification.
For me, music is the best form of art, because it creates so many feelings and atmospheres in a completely ambiguous way. For example, these three things could all stimulate the same feelings: a love poem, a painting of two lovers, and a romantic melody. The first two explicitly portray love, whereas the

Hi there!
Aimen, I've just seen your post (too late as usual
I'm sorry), many thanks for what you say. Also, I find your idea very interesting. Will we be supposed to draw here, in the site?
About Mona Lisa and Da Vinci, I've wondered what she could mean by her strange and clever smile until I read "Da Vinci Code" (Dan Brown). Don't know if he's right or not... Ok, I'm not going to talk about this here.
Awaiting your exercise.
Lepingouin, nice way to talk about those artistic means.

"Without" is already a negation, so "without never" would be a double negation.

Hi
At first sight, is the question “which transport do you prefer” or “what is your favourite form of art”? As I am concerned I give heed more to design art. It consists in making goods more suitable and easily for use by improving their forms and functions. For example, my computer mouse must be developed. Sometimes I have some difficulties to click on links when surfing in the web, even I push on button as strong as I do, or I lose sight of its spot in the screen. So I am obligated to start again my computer to reset all. Sometimes, as I go along with surfing in the web my hand sweats. So it’s soaked. Should I cut down my surfing time?

Hello everybody
I came back from Paris since last Tuesday and I had the chance to visit the town center by night .
How beautiful was the Eiffel Tower all sparkling !
I was enthusiastic like a child when I saw the buildings of Lafayette' Galeries and Printemps which twinkled by thousand of light.
I think that some presentations of illuminations are also a form of art.
