Review on number 4, Art as we know it today.
"Art is an evolving and global concept." That is the main quote used to describe this article. The article is a lot of question and answer. The questions center around today's art and ask many questions about technology and art. I completely agree with most of the statements made. When asked if artist agree with the evolving technology and art as a partnership the interviewer got two separate answers, but they were also one in the same. One artist said that it strongly influences his work and he loves the programming. Another artist said that he's very traditional and he believes it means more to have a physical piece of artwork but that he still uses the internet to research old cartoons and to gather ideas for his art. The overall conclusion of the article is that many artists agree with the technology used today. It creates more of a competitive atmosphere seeing as how any person can post their artwork as soon as they complete it. Nevertheless, "The cream just naturally rises to the top."
Love the final quote - the cream (best) always rises to the top!
