Art must be beautiful

At the beginning of the video it shows that artist Marina Abramovic was constantly brushing her hair as she kept saying artist must be beautiful. I think its a powerful message because in her mind beauty was to look pretty and neat. just like how most people in society see beauty in people. I think that in this video its trying to describe that beauty isn’t in just a couple basic forms. It’s how the viewers interprets it and takes a message from it. A quote in the movie, “Art is beautiful, when it allows us to realize truths about ourselves.” I think the message is trying to say that different people find different kinds of beauty or connections with different art or people.

She also explained in the video about how even in history there were different interpretations of art. To me what I feel closest to is what I find beautiful. If there is art or a person that knows or has some aspects of my culture then I am more likely to be attracted to it. How a piece of art is assembled is an important way the piece is displayed. another quote in the movie, “To be beautiful, a living creature, and every whole made up of parts, must…present a certain order In its arrangements of parts.” again everyone sees differently from each other so what can only one person say is truly beautiful? beauty is in everything you just have to look for it.
