I Have Random Toughts

As I grow older, I love nature more and more, and get more sceptical about art. Don't get me wrong, I still love a good book, movie, painting, but I see sincerity is greatly missing in art today. Art and culture is just about posturing. A lifestyle. You add the words "artistic" or "cultural" to any piece of rubbish and it gains respectability. I really wonder if art and culture mean something today.

I may be a traditionalist, but the problem is not only that I see the quality of art going plummeting (this is just a personal opinion after all), but also the attitude towards it. It is used as a way to feel different. Art should be a way of expressing our feelings, dreams, nightmares, and make universal what is personal. Art should build bridges. I don't ser it happening today.
