The artist

In this crazy world there is no time for art, there is no time to think and make a reflection about the non changing problems of humanity: hunger, love, happiness… your best friends girlfriend, maybe of your own brother… where to start

People have been instructed to “be happy” just like that… as if it was something as easy as loose weight… but this is a much deeper and dark topic, it is to be written only under the heavy influence of alcohol… what else

who should be devoting a life time to art? the talented one? the devoted one? the rich one? that has been the never ending debate. according to Marina Abramović the only chance you have in life to make great art is by having a rough childhood… will give you the material to feed your art, process all your experiences thru art… the old greeks believed you could be an Artis or a philosopher only if you came from a rich family, and you have the chance to really think about your art without being distracted by “life Stuff”

who should be an artist? I do believe those having it easy with the money will have more chances to dedicate themselves to art… will they have talent? no… does a rough childhood makes you talented? no… makes a traumatised person, nothing more… would a traumatised talented person with lots of money be a great artist? yes! I think so…

where is art, and where to find it?
