RE: [Sndbox] The role of Art from the cave paintings to our society: a model

in #art7 years ago

Interesting points and nicely illustrated. But what might the concept of "control" mean for more surrealistic art... the desire to control the non existent or the subconscious?

Thx @reinhard-schmid.
About the non-realistic art styles and movements, I think it is even more a matter of control (and a matter of learning by narrative and non-verbal patterns). I'll write a post about it.
Same thing about surrealistic images: the simple fact to create images out of inner feelings and concepts makes them visible, not in the darkness anymore. Images are a powerful way to tame the unspeakable :)

Yes, that's exactly what I thought! Thanks for confirming :-)
