Art and Fear: Chapter One

Part One:

Writing [artmaking] is easy: all you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until the drops of blood form on your forehead. -Gene Fowler

Repost the following questions on your own blog and write your responses to them. This is due by Sunday, Sept 11, 9pm :

1. What does the face of uncertainty mean to you?

When making art, all you have for the project, at first, are images and concepts flashing through your head. Some of them, you could keep, but some of them, once they appear, never come back.

However, what you are making is all based on those that are still in you mind and those that have already left. these could be the face of uncertainty.Because you never know which side is gonna take over,either the side which you almost have in mind, or the side which you have to take advantages in every step.

2. How do you feel about the notion of, "doing something no one much cares wether you do, and for which there may be niether audience nor reward"?

I think this is a common sense shared by every artist.the reason are listed below:

1.most of your art reflect your interval thoughts, which sometimes are only understood by yourself.

2. art could be reflect ethnic or cultural facts that only shares with the people of that area.

3. The Assumptions: take one of the assumptions listed below and consider your personal relationship to it. How does the assumption relate to your feelings and thoughts toward art and artmaking? Please write a short paragraph analyzing the chosen assumption and your relationship to it.

- Artmaking invloves skill that can be learned

- Art is made by ordinary people

- Making art and viewing art are different at their core:

*to all viewers but yourself, what matters most is the product/ finished artwork

* your job is to learn to work on your work:

-even failed pieces are essential,

-you learn to make art by making your art,

-make art you care about and make LOTS of it!

* your job is to learn to work on your work:

-even failed pieces are essential

Making art would spent great amount of time and energy. However, you made a mistake, and you fail,but the things you have spent on it never came back. The feeling of knock is heavy on you.it felt even greater then when you made a success work. For me this is the same thing as success because next time, I will never fell in the same trap, because my failure has built a warning for me.This is why it's essential to me.

4. Artmaking has been around longer than the art establishment.

1. Definition/ Identity as an artist has both drawbacks and benefits. What does labeling yourself as an artist do for you or not do for you personally?

Labeling myself as an artist always remains me to think different or several steps further than others which help me thinking deeper and creative.

However, to be as a artist,in my case, when I get lazy I always blame that I have to drawing under a period which full of creative concept, which hasn't came to me yet. But in fact, the effort an artist should put into his/her works should be way greater than how much others put in their work.

2. What does labeling yourself as an artist do or not do for you as others view you?

To view me as a artist, people could understand sometime I think different or somehow, more critical.

However, people also see me as a person who made a short cut in academic study, because some of they only think art is the subject for elementary school kids.
