The art establishment is not really interested in how most
people live and their new behavioral patterns. Or what some “nobody” would like
to have as a backdrop for selfies. But the situation present a huge social
phenomenon and the changed interaction with reality, the NEW REALITY (SEE the
OLD REALITY), manipulated and adjusted to the standards of what is POPULAR to
get attention and “likes”. The reality is transformed because of the new rule of the
majority (see the old rule of the majority). What happens everywhere with everyone
can’t go unnoticed. It changes many things in the world. It is the new “cyber”
life style with new problems of the final ESCAPE from what we know as the
physical reality.
Art
establishment encourages the Consumerism .
What it should start doing
instead is to support the philosophical quest to build new school of thought
that could help to change the ongoing social disillusionment, start creating
the new utopia and ideals to inspire higher grounds and not support most base
instincts of the human nature. The MORAL change is the only thing that would
sustain the art franchise as an independent authority on anything related to
the visual image. As one and only historically credible authority to maintain
high aesthetics and in turn to prevent Atavism. It starts from the top. With the
little hope that a change is possible, the need for it is especially urgent in
the premise of visual art. The art establishment can no longer cater to the bad
behavior of the disordered and disoriented people even with the mutual dislike.
The
involvement of the masses globally in CREATIVITY that goes along with the photo
production is destructive to the artistic structure. The so-called digital art and mass photography puts any
artistic attempt at a meager level of not something that “goes viral” “trending”
spoken ROARED about and spread like fire what happens to the things that
internet population loves to share. Anything but not art indeed.
