Artist Statement for Lao Dan
|
|
|
In late modernity or in very early post-modernity, artists have not only to master a technique of representation as was the case during the past tens of thousands of years, they now also have to come up with their own content!
They need to master their technique in order not to be burdened by technical matters but content definitely finds central stage in artistic creation and "beauty" or "ugliness" relates thus more and more to the content of a work.
Without technique an artwork seems inachieved
and without intellectual content it is as if it were shallow.
We breathe the air of our time in a very selective fashion and the air of our time is our present day reality. Knowledge is our breathing technique, in our present day reality, that acts as a catalist on our visions of human perceptions of reality in the future.
Art is all about rendering in visual signs our visions of human perception of reality in the future.
Such signs have a societal function which is to help unify the worldview of all in our societies.
