I reslly appreciated your comment but here is some food for thought.<p>If art is about mimicking the real world, some will be much better than others and there will be only one best<p>If art is about capturing the perfect moment to inspire emotion, one could argue there are a thousand ways to do it.<p>If you believe artists should all speak in the same voice, i would say many would lose interest. If you allow artists to speak in their own voice, the cream will rise to the top. Naturally, the most sellable and marketable products will be given the limelight (pop art as an example) and omce those go out of fassion, a new fad will arise<p>As much as i agree that many modern peices look like they are pictures mixed with bleach, i dont think that is a bad thing. We have a free art market today while in the old world only the best were commissioned.
