From: Category: Art Date: 11 June 2008 Time: 04:37 AM Review: The Beginners Guide To Art: 1. Art is not just about content and "meaning" , it is also about form. 2. Form has its own language and parameters, and it is possible to describe these. 3. Intricacy has a long history as a decorative device in Western art,particuarly in relation to the Gothic Movement. 4. The sensation of deep space is difficult to achieve given the frank limitations of painting and sculpture. 5. What I like about art is that it should be good. Hope this helps.
