Art

     When we look at art, we give it value because we associate ourselves with the art.  We will either see that art is ugly or beautiful.  Either perspective will reflect our inner self.  “”Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charming” (3).  “Those who find beautiful meanings in beautiful things are the cultivated” (3).  Basically, one is suppose to consider the whole world and everything inside of it to be beautiful or else the person is corrupt.   If someone is holding a flower, the cultivated will consider it to be beautiful and the corrupt will not.  Art is a mere reflection of oneself.  All we can do is simply enjoy the art.  “If the contemplation of a work of art is followed by activity of any kind, the work is either of a very second-rate order, or the spectator has failed to realise the complete artistic impression.”
