men never fought wars over women because they were so "fair and innocent"- they did so because of the political status the marriage between her and him would bring. but the thing is, artist tend to do a whole ass of euphemisms on every fucking concept. well, it is their job, after all. they brighten up the ugly things, and turn them into something beautiful-into a poetry, painting, novel... as a popular theory summarizes it: art has no purpose but to be beatiful. although some artist dont agree on that statement, others praise it. but that other half, that other kind, they want to set the realistic atmosphere to their works, and it often turns out horrendous, almost as if the world is but a dark place with dark people and a glimpse of two of the true goodness. but thats not realistic. one can never be realistic fully. lets see it this way: person A portraits a society of paris in one way which he considers is realistic, with neither euphemisms nor hyperbolas. but, we have a person B who portraits the same society, maybe the same as the person B, but even then there are always some differences between the two scenes. it is, i assume, because we are our own individuals, we have different moral standards, we accept different theories about the universe and we focus on different things. theres nothing wrong with it, though. after all, people are made that way, and should stay that way, because thats what makes us unique.
the other thing i want to focus on is the content in art. most artist never write about the bigger picture because its harder for the common folk to comprehend it fully that way. artists dont write about the terrors of a holocaust, but of a single ring found on the floor of Auschwitz. in short: they focus on irrelevant (at first) concepts which you, as an observer of the said art, should picture and transcend into a more complex concept, transcending on a bigger picture, starting from something so small. thats what makes us think, instead of just serving us everything on a plate. and thats what makes art even better in my opinion, because it enhances our minds and, that way, maybe even makes us reconsider our own opinions.
