What is Art for

By Aldeni Senhorinha de LemosPublished 5 years ago 3 min read

What is Art? The job of molding, of shaping something; modeling art; plastic arts (dictionary definition). They noticed the similarity of plasmas and plastics. Artist, in his studies, develop the left side of the brain, which is the side that controls emotions and creativity. The right brain controls language and logical operations, accounts, studying, writing etc. That is why the function of an Engineer (who developed the right side of the brain) is to put a building "on its feet", bridges, etc. And in no way can they collapse any big responsibility. The Architect, (who opens the left side of the brain) who is the Artist, his function, is to bring beauty to the facade of buildings, bridges, houses, parks (when the specialization is landscaping), etc. So, both complement each other. So much so that in a Faculty of Architecture, the student has some subjects from the Engineering Course. And the Plastic Artist? The same function as the Architect, bringing beauty to the world. Portraying his time, his historical period, often making us rethink some attitudes (which is Modern Art Today). When a Modern Artist makes an entire Work of garbage, we remember the importance of recycling garbage. This is just an example. But, since Centuries, the function of every Artist is to reflect what is around him. Actors, Actresses, Filmmakers, Plastic Artists (involving; sculpture, painting, kinetic art, modern art and all art related to the theme), Architects, Theater Directors, Fashion Designer - Fashion Creators (Stylists), Photographers , Musicians, Composers, Poets, Writers (excluding technical writing), dance of all kinds, ballet, which is a work of art in motion, with body expression as technique, Olympic games (already watched), every athlete has expression movement, which is also art, etc. (I'm sorry the Artists, if I didn't mention any profession). Everyone gives shape to something, be it characters, buildings, sculptures, paintings (plastic arts in general), clothes, images, colors, sounds, words, visual image, body expression etc. Good Quality Entertainment (which brings some added value, is the function), bring imagination to people, bring pleasure to the scenery which is beautiful, bring moments of joy, moments of mental abstraction, a moment of yoga, and tc Everyone does absolutely the same. Represent your Period, the Historical moment, adding to it and making us rethink life. The Artist recounts Life. He is a "Mirror". In nature everything has a golden ratio or a golden ratio. All Artists doggedly pursue a golden ratio. That is also present in the Human Body. (below, I will leave an explanation). The Surgeon, or the Plastic Surgeon, also developed the left brain! Well, they are attentive to the small details of the human body, and they are not perfectionists and they are also excellent. They are Artists! Leonardo da Vinci, studied human anatomy and many other artists also studied. (The golden ratio). If you thought that Art is not essential, you may need to rethink your opinion. Well, another function of the Artist is to make Life lighter, as I said, bringing moments of abstraction, moments of breathing, moments of yoga. Try to pass this moment on to as many people as possible. Then we can move on, more leaves. Wikipedia DEFINITION: Golden ratio half the sum of one with the square root of five - Golden ratio, golden number, golden number, golden section, golden ratio is an irrational real algebraic constant denoted by Greek letter (PHI), in homage to the sculptor Phideas (Phidias), that the criterion used to conceive the Parthenon, and with the value rounded to three decimal places of 1,618. It is also called se (c) golden ation (from Latin sectio aurea), golden ratio, golden ratio, medium and extreme ratio (Euclid), divine proportion, divine section (from Latin sectio divina), proportion in reason, division of extreme reason or golden excellence. The gold number is still often called the Phidias ratio. Since antiquity, the golden ratio has been used in art. It is frequently used in Renaissance paintings, such as those of the master Giotto. This figure is related to the nature of growth. Phi (not to be confused with the Pi number) as the gold number is called, can be found roughly in man (the size of the phalanges, finger bones, for example), in hives, among countless other examples involving the order of growth in nature. Precisely because it was found in growth studies, the gold number gained an "ideal" status, being the target of researchers, artists and writers. The fact that it is supported by mathematics is what makes it fascinating.
