Manifesto of problems of defining art

 

  1. Art is real.  It captures the mind of many and helps people live a full life.
  2. Art is big and is hard to find the limits where it can be classified.  So many things can be in the definition of art that its hard to find what is not.
  3. Art is not defined.  There has been many who have tried but there is no total agreement.
  4. Can art be defined? I think it can just cause there is debatable aspects does not mean its impossible.  I think it is most certainly possible.
  5. We know a lot about art.  We can all agree that there are paintings, plays, and music that is conceived as art. Now its our job to go a step further and define the shady areas of art.
  6. Why draw the line?  Putting a definition to the word will help us evolve and expand the genre of art and put things into new perspectives that will make humans understand more about this great area of expertise.
  7. Art needs to be defined.  Even if it is as general as everything a human sees or hears or reads and feels something from that then that is art.

 

Three music critics, Monique, Miranda, and Michelle are considered illustrious guests at Lorenzo parties, both because of their beauty and their wit. Monique, Miranda, and Michelle are triplets and nobody knows which one (only one) is kind and how dangerous it is to chatter with other, unidentified sisters. The triplets ask to be called M.J. Once, after he read an unfavorable critique authored by M.J., Colin the oboist was so infuriated that he decided to sue the music critic for libel. He hired agent Michael, to discover whom was he going to sue. Michael fell in love with one of M.J., but he still did not know how to tell which of the sisters was the object of his desire. Colin stated in public that the sister who used to have the other two triplets keeping their incognito would commit a kind of an identity theft, but he still did not know who was behind this action.
