I guess we all admire the classics, but what about all the talent on platforms like deviantart? it's a new age, and these artists are pushing boundaries in ways unimaginable to the old masters. contemporary art is more than just NFTs. it's about expressing ideas in fresh, innovative ways. so instead of longing for the past, let's embrace the evolution of art.
- mbivert 3y agoI've found digital works to often display more creativity than non-digital ones. My pet theory is that digital tools remove so many constraints over traditional mediums: infinite undo, no color mixing, a full chromatic palette, "liquify", layers, etc. that artists have more room to experiment. Finding a balance between tradition and novelty is perhaps the most comfortable position: tradition brings experience accumulated over many lifetimes, it's foolish to reject it. But it's equally unwise to systematically reject novelty either.
