«Mimesis» Painting

Plato first developed the idea of ​​art as "mimesis", which, in Greek, means copying or imitation. For this reason, the main meaning of art has been, for centuries, defined as its representationreplicating something that is beautiful or meaningful. The definition of "good art" has had a profound impact on modern and contemporary artists; so as Gordon Graham writes, “It leads people to place great value on portraitsvery realistic, such as: Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rubens, Velásquez, and so on away and to raise questions about the value of "modern" art its cubist distortions Picasso, Joan Miro's surreal figures, Kandinsky summaries or "action" paintings by Jackson Pollock. While representational art still exists today, it is no longer the only measure of value. Immanuel Kant(1724-1804) believed that art should not have a concept, but should be judged only on its formal qualities, because the content of a work of art is not of aesthetic interest. The question "what is art?" it has been around for centuries and has different interpretations or finds different ones answers. But what we are experiencing in the 21st century in the art scene actually involves a extraordinary mutation by the new means, by the new techniques that have appeared, and I mean from photography onwards, in film, on the internet today, in all forms of multimedia communication. And then these images that I compose and they are in a way reduced to sign, to letter, and the essence, in the end, when you perceive a work of art, it is based on the perception of the sign, the perception of emptiness / fullness, or the perception of form / non-form, on the perception of color / non-color ... ” A space between two words has a certain meaning, it is not just silence ... By the way, i almost forgot: "Bon appetite!"
