There is no art out there that I know of that I absolutely despise. There may be some art that I do not necessarily enjoy, but not despise. The way I look at it I do not think there is such a thing as bad art. There is no universal standard of what bad art is. People interpret art in different ways and who is to say who is right? Some people may think that the High School Musical series is one of the greatest shows to ever come out, and some people may think it’s just complete booty. It depends on the person. Even if I do not agree that a particular art is good, I could understand why some people may like it. Basically humans are different and we have different tastes. We have different things that interest us.
I would like to point out the Mona Lisa. To me, it is just a simple painting of a woman. That’s it!! If it was up to me to decide what art is, this painting would not be famous at all. It would just be a painting of a woman chillin’ in a chair somewhere in France. And the way people interpret this painting to me is just a waste of time. I hear people all the time talking about, “Da Vinci was saying this when he painted Mona Lisa” or “This painting represents feminine mystique.” The only thing I believe it represents is a woman chillin’ in a chair somewhere in France. To me anybody could have painted something just like it. I don’t see it as unique, but I can understand why some people would. Some people infer much meaning onto visual art. It is a way of expression for people that satisfies them. That is one thing all humans have in common. We don’t all like the same thing, but the things we do like we get a lot of satisfaction from it. Art is used to satisfy our particular senses, and that is why there is a lot of variety of art.
Here are some examples of my particular art that I find satisfying. It is in the art form of comedy and music.
