This made me think of music. You have decades (the 60's, the 70's) and genres (rock, pop, disco). Music that was recorded during the decade was of the decade but it also changed as time went on. The music of 1970 was very different from 1979, for instance. Disco music can still be written and recorded today and if you were not familiar with the music and artists from the 1970's, you would not know whether it was from back then or now. Love the videos. Very informative. (As an aside, the two painting of the girls on the gallery wall made me think of the Mona Lisa (?) at the beginning of your "Why Your Art is Bad" video.)

Excellent video. I might add that "contemporary art" post-1990's are less regional that most movements prior to then. The information age has in many ways eroded those boundaries. Much of contemporary art could be easily made in France, Mexico, the US, or Australia with very few know or needing to know its country of origins. The exceptions being identity based artworks, but those are I believe in response to the erosion of those boundaries.

Life is Art. Everything in life is a work of art, people just don’t recognize it as such. The clouds in the sky, the moon and the sun? Works of art that are always around without intending to be a work of art. Cave art is priceless but when it was made it probably wasn’t intended as work of art but maybe a warning or rules etc. intending to be a work of art is meaningless in grand scheme of things

I think modern art is first about subject. I don not tnink about mself as a contemporary artist, because I paint religious still lifes in oils. Here a list provided bu Saatchi Art, contemporary art can be narrowed down into : Accessibility and advocacy for persons with disabilities Animal Rights and Protections Black Identity, Culture, and Activism Body Image and Self Esteem Conflict and Adversity Cultural Diversity Environmentalism, Sustainability, and Climate Issues Freedom and Social Change Health and Wellness Historical Subjects Heroes and Leaders Identity Immigration and Migration Indigenous identity, culture, and activism Latinx LGBTQIA+ Masculinity Mental Health Politics and Activism Refugee Advocacy Spirituality and Meditation Women's Issues

@contemporaryartissue 10 месяцев назад

Hi there, I don't believe the subject matter is necessarily superior to the process and technique-however, the medium (process) can also be the message (subject). Of course, religious still life painting, especially when rendered in a traditional technique, is less contemporary than other works because it only applies to two of the four conditions we've discussed. However, if you enjoy it, you should continue to go for it!

I’m sure this video is interesting and helpful for lots of people, but I don’t recommend artists see it. We don’t do well with being told what attributes of our art satisfies which requirements to be considered whatever. We will always attempt transgressing the boundaries which are set up in this way. I understand this is a serious attempt to elucidate the messiness of contemporary art, but let’s not work on maintaining borders just yet. I believe we are on the cusp of a great change in art which will make these delineations look small and miserly. I will be interested to see how generations in the future look at the art of our times. It may be vastly different than this ‘more of the same’ approach to what is happening now. I’d like to thank you for always giving us thought provoking perspectives on contemporary art issues… especially when they seed the clouds of debate.

when you add the word successful you imply that the artist will sell alot and be well known by the world..... success in that way is more about politics ,who you know, or meet, your connections or your luck, being in the right place or right time....there are millions of great artists in the world but only a fraction of them achieve this type of success......if the only art you enjoy is the art that is popular and well advertised you are cheating your self out of some of the best art in your life time. open your mind. dig deeper in your quest to find great art and except those artists and there works who may not be publicly praised .

Next we will have ultra-ultra-contemporary art, ha! Ultimately, art history teaches that there are two kinds of art: good and bad. The good is that which tends to survive, the bad become period pieces, which may yet possess merit but lack the spark, or shock, of human recognition - compare the saccharine Lancret to the genuinely melancholy and poetic Watteau.

Art is produced to serve a market. The primary purchasers and therefor influencers of art in our age are Corporate entities and that market has a preference for abstract art which is therefor fashionable. Plutocrats mostly purchase contemporary art as an investment but it does not follow that what they are sold is either meaningful or good. The art of any age is only as cultured as its patrons.

@contemporaryartissue 10 месяцев назад

Perhaps at the top end of the market-and I am not entirely sure if today's art world favors abstract art over other art forms; in the current top 20 artists worldwide, we only encounter two abstract artists who are actually also creating other figurative work; Yayoi Kusama and Gerhard Richter. Don't forget the majority (in volume, not in value) of the collectors are private, upper middle class to high class people instead of corporate collectors.

Conditions to be a contemporary artist : 1. the most important one. Have NO talent, if you have talent and skill please refrain yourself to go into the contemporary bubble, you´re not only not welcome there but you won´t like it either, this is the cult of mediocrity and people will freak out if you can draw great or have knowledge of color. 2. Be ready to do some sex favors, won´t happen to everyone, but well if you fulfilled condition 1 and are somewhat handsome/pretty, you probably will end up giving sex in exchange of favors in the art world. 3. Be a poser, play along the ideology that governs the art world and its values, never try to go against the current, both politically and aesthetically, the contemporary art bubble is a micro world where everyone wants to be so original, that everyone ends up doing the same. Be docile and submit yourself to authorities in the field. 4. Since you need NO talent at all, focus all your efforts in making contacts, selling yourself, and giving long explanations (using artspeak) about how the piece of garbage you made somehow is great art. Sooner or later you´ll realize this is all a fraud and you´ll just have to play along.

@contemporaryartissue 8 месяцев назад

If you don't like contemporary art, perhaps this is not the channel for you. In art, there is enough for anyone. Enjoy what you enjoy most without decrying others.

I´m glad there´s the internet and the elites don´t control the narrative anymore, now people who really love art can express their opinions. So far I haven´t seen a single example of talent, would love to see one, I love art from the caves of Lascaux until some abstract (most abstract is crap but there´s a few good ones) conceptual on the opposite is an anomaly, a fraud commited by pseudo intellectuals who need to justify in words what would be impossible even to see as art, the works themselves can´t stand on their own and they need fake ideologues to sell them, because no one in their right mind would even consider than as art. FAILS as visual art simply because it doesn´t enter through your eyes but through some ass cheap explanations that are as worthy as fecal matter, actually fecal matter has been sold as art, that´s how bad conceptual/contemporary art is. Cringy and poser. IF you need to put your work in the sacrosanct space of a museum to be called art, then is not art, if you need to resort to any explanation or theories to "get it" then is not art. I could even accept that contemporary art is (cheap) philosophy, but art never, and conceptual "artists" have to recognize that there´s not a consensus that they´e stuff is art, in their heads, in their bubble maybe, but in the real world, from the simple person, to the real intelligent, there´s a lack of respect to what they do, and a huge doubt and lack of understanding from the more humble, which I am not, I have my eyes closed and I am telling you here, what you stand for is a fraud, and if it was for me, I would give a shovel to everyone of you fake posers, to work the land SO you know how food is earned damn it, since you´re allergic to work.

El arte contemporáneo es inseparable del orden de la globalización del capitalismo anglosajón al finalizar la guerra fría. Es, pues, una imposición política de ese orden frente a otros como el realismo socialista soviético y chino, el arte mural mexicano, las expresiones populares, etc. Por lo tanto representa fielmente sus valores: fundamentalismo democrático, multiculturalismo, estética disidente políticamente impotente, moral woke, etc. ¿Cómo ser un artista contemporáneo? acata los valores del imperialismo anglosajón.

El arte contemporáneo existe por la red del mercado global, es inseparable de la teoría producida en Estados Unidos y Europa (aun el enfoque decolonial se exporta de ahí) y los temas, discusiones y valores que reproducen los espacios que se definen como "arte contemporáneo" están alineados a ese mismo orden político. Por eso suelen ser redundantes las muestras de arte contemporáneo aunque se hagan en lugares muy distantes, al igual que los templos romanos eran similares en la Galia, Asía Menor o Libia.

Contemporary isn’t an era as is modern

@contemporaryartissue 10 месяцев назад

Yet, it is being used in the same sense-almost interchangeable with the terms postmodern art and postwar art. Thank you for tuning in

Might be an interesting episode to clarify the word Contemporary and it’s misuse?@@contemporaryartissue

Art has backed itself into a philosophical corner. It has become irrelevant.

What makes an artwork contemporary? Answer: 1) Uglyness 2) Meaningless 3) Pretedents a real art but actually a money tramp 4) The more is stupid, rubbish the more be a "valuable" in terms of $ Therefore, the so-called art in question is just a scam.

@@contemporaryartissueyour speech is refreshingly beautiful. I am an American, with daily dismay at how English grammar, syntax, and vocabulary are consistently ignored in everyday written and spoken conversation. I am also a professional opera singer and teacher of bel canto, with a lifelong love of the ‘feel’ of languages in the mouth. My academic study of Italian, French, German, Spanish - and training to sing in Scandinavian and Slavic languages, informs my sense of many people in one world. The poetic sounds of the peoples of the world are lovely to hear, recite, and sing.

@allonifrah3465 9 месяцев назад

The real question is; Why place so much importance on this term? It's only useful when you're trying to explain that 2 artists lived and made their works in the same era. But other than that, what does it matter? I understand there are trends in fashion that come and go, bound to the times. Still, I see art as something timeless. Many people would use the term contemporary art to argue that the more classical art that others enjoy is "out of fashion" and to "get with the times" and appreciate contemporary ary instead. It is often used by modern art enthusiasts to make the passive agressive implication that older styles of art are somehow outdated and square. When people have this "NeW GoOd. oLd BaD" mentality about art, they're treating art as if it's the same shallow, infatuation based hype phenomenon as clothing fashion is. Spoiler Alert: It's not. Art is a way of expressing feelings and ideas and the various styles that have been used to that effect throughhout history are just the many different tools for such expressions. Hyper stylised Maya art is good for certain types of expressions. They're playful, bold, wild, yet orderly and disciplined. Hyper realism and impressionism are better for other types of expressions. Dreamy, more abstract feelings, creates an air of mysticism, more calm & subdued.Keith Herring style art is yet better suited to other expressions. Those of the same playfulness and boldness of maya art, but much more chaotic and anarchistic, somehow more primitive and childlike and less agressive and morbid. Perhaps, if you have only a very narrow range of feelings, you can only appreciate very few art styles from a very specific period, but if you have a wide range of feelings, you're going to appreciate many different art styles as ways to give expression to them all. In most cases of people obsessed with only 1 type of art from 1 type of period, usually contemporary modern art, are not really inspired by deep feelings at all, but instead with their image and what type of art will be their shtick to add to their "personality" as a badge of honor. Because I find it very hard to believe that people could really only appreciate 1 very specific style of art. That that's all they can feel and resonate with.

Some of my favorite art styles are many 1000nds of years old: The stone carvings of warriors, kings, mythological man-beast figures like Lamassus as seen in ancient Sumeria, Persia, Akkadia and Assyria. Fantastic. Graceful 7000 years ago, gracefull now. These styles aren't fashions. These styles are timeless in that they continue to charm and uplift us. They continue to inspire awe.

The new “era” is the Meta-Modern . Not post post modern .

@contemporaryartissue 9 месяцев назад

Post-postmodernism has various titles in the running; meta-modernism, post-millennialism, pseudo-modernism, digi-modernism, and so on, and they all have a slightly different angle to the era in question.
