Always Art?

Always ART?

YES!! I would think ART always, always ART. As explained in my previous post ART is omnipotent. Art is everywhere just to make the sun shine and warm you. This is particularly needed in wintertime when we tend to move away from the dark and cold outside. Just by doing so we lose the connection to the things we need the most. Lack of oxygen, nature and thus art makes us grumpy and restless. We long for better days without realizing these days are just on our doorstep if only we would open the door and explore a whole new kind of world where, altough cold and rough and white, lost of experiences await us. On the really nice days the sun will shine without feeling the warmth on our skins.

The same is true for above painting. We see the sun, we see the brightness and the splendid colors but we fail to feel the sun tickling on our skin. The artist of this painting has truely captured the icecold sun of January. We see it and can only dream about the better times when we can acusally feel the sun burning. Now we are getting close to the real thing. Obviously art helps us interpret reality in a way that suits us. This is of course different for all of us. Above example is my interpretation while I can imagine someone else concluding the opposite and feeling the warmth of this sun while longing for wintery times with a weak sun shining on snow and ice.
