I have some questions for all who wish to reply…
- Does art mix with politics?
- Should artists get involved with politics?
- Can art, (not that which is made for political propaganda) influence others politically or socially?
- If you thought that artists should not get involved with politics, can you tell me who should?
- If you thought that art does not mix with politics, can you tell me what does mix with politics and what mixes with art?
I look forward to your opinions, and please, always remember that the only thing we proffer is opinions, there are very few facts out there.
Cheers…
* This painting depicts the artist (I thought about doing a portrait of Francisco Goya) in a pensive mood, seemingly floating on the blue waters of a «creative» sea, while the «muse» looks from the side, taking on a rather sinister appearance…

Art mixes with everything for it is part of life. And it has greater value if it helps people to expand their minds and hearts.

Art is an incredibly vital aspect of human expression, beloved by people of all backgrounds and cultures. It transcends language barriers and has the power to communicate complex ideas through its visual language. Whether it’s through graphic design or political propaganda, art can captivate and speak to its audience in ways that words alone cannot.🎨🫂

I would not qualify my art as politically engaged, sometimes what I write to accompany my images in my blog will be, and often not quite related to what I am showing, it is an ‘art to make art that speak or convey a message’, to me it is easier to write about it, but I do admire artists who can express it in their production. Maybe for me it would be a matter to try it…but I don’t think it is something that can be achieved by every artist.

I believe artists have always been influential in social causes. In fact, artists are sometimes the first ones targeted for censorship and persecution.

Very true Dawn and that is the more reason why artists should continue to speak. Thank you 🙏🏻 and all the best.
