Separating the necessary from the incidental

New meaning in art is needed. We must balance the good of every painting made to date and the bad of the same. In essence, it is the authority of the artists of this age to decide what is Artistic about science and what is the Science in Art? Before the Renaissance; art was basically a trade i.e unimportant. Artists didn’t even sign there work! Nothing like today’s world; Due to changing cultures, empires, countries, wars, and most importantly individuals( Donatello,Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, Rembrandt, Titian; to name a few in the beginning) ART was made a noble lifestyle. Others existed before and countless others after. From the Renaissance, Academia, Impressionism, Modernism to today in the here and know it is clear; Once a artistic style is catergorized it is already in decline! To place types of art into a neatly made package i.e a name it has lost its power already to captivate an audience because in art words mean nothing; it is the visual world not the verbal that reigns supreme. To explain it plainly once it is talked of, the art movement is already dead; that growth of artistic learning has ended. So now we as artists have vasts amounts of artistic science or paintings, architecture, technology, cultures and experiences to pull from to freely shape art for the future. But we as Michelangelo once put it we must “separate the necessary from the incidental”.
