I appreciate art work of all types. I can look at a painting and appreciate the expertise that went into it, its inherent beauty – but unless it SPEAKS to me – makes me FEEL something, it isn’t really ‘art’ to me.
I want to REACT when I see a photo, a painting, a sculpture. I might want to TOUCH it to fully appreciate the 3-D-ness or texture. I might tear up. I might smirk or laugh. I might be so touched I feel as if I melted into a puddle. I might wish I could BE there. I want to BE different because I saw it.
