Art vs. nature?

art is seen to be an aesthetic representation of reality (aka. nature). do you think this is true? to what extent does art accurately depict nature, or should art be condemned in society because it is seen to be false and untruthful?

Art vs. nature?
sure i think art is an aesthetic representation of nature, and it can be fairly accurate.


why should we ban it, who doesnt like art?
Reply:"Art verses Nature" is merely one form of expression in art. Art has multitudes of genres and movements besides the Realism that emulates natural aesthetics. Your suggestion to condemn the whole field of art because of one category is like throwing the baby out with the bath water. In literature there are numerous literary categories: novel, drama, folktale, nonfiction, fiction, science fiction, biography, autobiography, mystery, history, poetry, anthology, mythology, etc. Are you going to condemn and band all of literature because you are not in favor of one literary genre? Of course not, that would be absurd. Art encompasses a proliferation of genres and movements besides Realism:

Reply:Man is a part of nature; art is created by man therefore I believe art resembles a part of nature. I do not think art should be condemned although I believe art is slowly dying due to the almighty dollar.
Reply:Art itself is never false or untruthful , but all that Art that IS false/untruthful , should be condemned , as it is likely to 'corrupt' (if you like ) the viewer/reader/listener %26amp; gives rise to feelings like yours , that maybe all Art is so .


In some forms of art , it is not necessary that it depict Life exactly , but at the very least , it must reflect the artist's true mind %26amp; not be some concoction intended only to impress critics .
Reply:there's no ample replacement for the real thing.
Reply:Art is expression. It does not necessarily have to represent any existing physical states.


Art includes a diverse range of forms including music, movies and wide range of design works. If Art is to be condemned, what kind of life will it be on this planet?





Art has nothing to do with God, or the truth attached with him.
