Photographs now are presented in museums as work of art, and their creators are considered as artists.
And me skribbling an illustration on a piece of paper doesn’t make me an artist the same way taking a selfie doesn’t make me an artist.
That shows that something being art and someone being an artist has nothing to do with the medium and the used tools.
- inigyou 2mo agoPhotographs presented as works of art have something about the choice of what and how to photograph that is artistic. I can't just, like, take a photo of my leg and call it art. At least not without writing a thought-provoking blurb about is a photo of a leg really art? Then it becomes artistic parody, like the toilet sculpture.
