Positioned in Paris, France, the Louvre is one in all the world’s best art museums visited by 8.7 million visitors annually.
Additionally it is an emblem that shows the awe of human creativity and cultural heritage beyond the appreciation of arts, which should be penetrated through several layers to see one Mona Lisa.
These examples show that art is just beyond the great thing about beauty and functions as an industry and a measure of national identity.
But the truth of Korea is somewhat contrary. Although it has a world -class art museum and author, it is difficult to say that our museum has change into a ‘landmark’ that draws cultural and economy like Louvre.
This isn’t just due to variety of works or the scale of the exhibition. More fundamentally, it’s because of the dearth of continuous investment in your entire art ecosystem and lack of close contact with the general public.
Now’s the turning point. Additionally it is essential to gather world -class art and artists’ works, but that isn’t enough.
In a protracted -term perspective, to change into a real cultural powerhouse, you need to spend money on the potential for ‘now’.
It’s essential to actively discover young writers within the region, provide creative space and exhibition opportunities, and establish the inspiration for education, criticism and market.
Art cannot only grow on top like a tree without roots. It grows at plenty of unnamed fingertips that penetrated deep in the bottom.
Is the longer term of art within the AI era or pessimistic?
Productive artificial intelligence writes images, music and writes in a way that you might not imagine before. On this era, the query of what human artist plays naturally follows.
However the essence of art isn’t simply to create something. The art begins with a brand new perspective since it is ‘to look unfamiliar with a well-known world.’
Additionally it is an act of asking questions, sharing unique feelings and experiences, and making a connection between people.
AI is just a tool, and use the tool continues to be to human beings. The rationale our society should spend money on art isn’t simply to support beauty.
It’s the idea for developing the core competencies of the longer term society of creativity, imagination, and variety. The exhibition provided to a young artist isn’t limited to the profession of 1 person.
It becomes a seed that changes the cultural topography of the neighborhood, suggests the potential for a brand new profession to young people, and awakens the sensitivity of a citizen.
In any case, the necessary thing is what form of society we dream of. Within the age of consumption and speed, art could seem slow and useless.
But there’s humanity, reasons, and sustainable future in that ‘useless’.
Like many individuals who’ve been elastic in front of the Louvre’s Mona Lisa, we must start here in order that our kids can in the future feel impressed and pleased with within the art museum in Korea.
