artsy fartsy!!

     I believe art in its truest sense is practically dead. How can you consider anything as art, when all works of art have to pass under a limbo bar along with the things like Taste and The Public Interest all tied like a thin can to the waging tail of the sacred Prime Rate Poodle? It's business. Art literally means creating something out of nothing and selling it. Nobody really cares about artists. They have no meaning, no lobby and no power to control the payment of royalties due to them for their material. The industrial entities that consume the art - like commercial businesses all have contracts which are basically designed to deprive the artist of all his rights. You might find a rare "real" artist today, but when he's got a wife and four children to feed, he's got no choice but to join the bandwagon. Is this the evidence of human evolution? Yes. In fact , it all falls under Darwin's theory of survival of the fittest . We need money to survive and exploiting as artist's talent for money is a clever idea.

     Poetry makes fancy castles in the clouds of sentiments. These so-called  high art originates in an empty mind and re more often linked by idlers. Sitting idle giving birth to such creations and going through them, just gets my goat. Apart from the creations by likes of Devkota and Shakespeare (and many other), art in all forms is generally boring, which adds to the complexities of life. The artist creates his work with one idea, but by the time audience receives it, it has already changed its meaning. High art not only wastes precious time and resources, sometimes these also communicate violent messages that are not beneficial to the society. To go through high art is only another way to boost the sale of tablets for headache. Stories of epics and the tele-serials are good to watch, but one one implements them in their life. Had it been such, human history would have eliminated the problems of racial discriminations, intercaste marriages and others long ago. If they can not be copies in real life, what is the worth of such things? #just saying.. don't get itchy!!
