In my opinion art is a piece of work that genuinely means something to the artist and the people the artist is making the art for. Artwork should allow for people to form a connection with it to help them take away the full meaning. In my experience the best artwork is artwork that can be interpreted in many different ways. The most controversial pieces of art are usually the most effective and accomplish the goal of the artist. I think it is important that artwork allows for the viewer to really think and analyze what they are looking at. Obvious artwork could be seen as boring or lacking substance while a piece of artwork that you could analyze for hours will stimulate our thoughts and emotions. I also find that art that reflects modern times is easier for me to connect with. While it is important to have history incorporated with artwork I personally appreciate more contemporary art. Artwork should ultimately be a representation for an underlying message or theme that the viewer is able to determine. The more important the message of the artwork is the more likely it will have a profound impact on the art world.
