spring is green with bright bold slashes
summer a yellow blob up high
autumn red and orange flashes
winter black strokes against the sky

who can see the seasons vie
side by side in crayoned scrawl
except the visionary eye

Attaboy, Pedo-Chuck. Throw on the old Lysaght charm by
referring to her with a man's name (no surprise there).

BTW, jerk, you never did thank Peter, Bertie, and me for
providing you with most of the lines for what you wrote.
It's sad to see how badly you crapped up our gifts.

I don't believe anyone bothers to determine
if Pedo-Chuck has plagiarized something --
it's sort of become a given.

If Mani's treatment is too rough for you then don't

Visit one of the poetry groups and watch them if you

the cross posting occurred: let's take a closer look at it - looking at the
poem in metaphorical terms it raises the question - which is more important
the external world object or the internal world object.

some art writers argue that the subject is secondary and that the artist's
created image - the art work - is the primary image. to imitate the primary
image is to lie since the secondary image takes place on a flat surface - so
the objective is to create an image that lets the viewer know that the
artiest is not trying to lie to them -
now we are down to the role of the visual lie in art.

<snipped all remnant of trollish crossposts>

Not sure I understand.
There is what was in the mind of the artist. The intention the artist
had to communicate something to the viewer. The superficial
effect the painting has on the viewer. The misunderstood conception
that most art produces, since there is no definite language.
Then there is the successful understanding of the artists intention. Maybe.
Have you an example of the "artistic lie"?

Regarding what is important.
I suggest that the best situation is when the artists intention is
successfully
transmitted to the viewer.
Well, at least the framework. Maybe there is room, as in literature and
music, to provide a space for personal interpretation.
When the artwork is intended solely to become this last function without
any intended communication, then I suggest we are getting to your
"artistic lie"?

hi Thur:
have been away for a few days - just checking back

painting takes place on a two dimensional surface - to create a third
dimension on a two dimensional surface requires trickery - the extreme
classic example is birds pecking at surface painted grapes - bulls being
tricked by a surface painting of a cow - not need to go on - this is in
essence a graphic lie - exceptional artists and many master painters - stop
short of the complete illusion you the viewer are given clues such that you
do not mistake the painting for an actual three dimensional object - master
work is not in that sense a graphic lie

so the objective is to lie but let your viewer know that you are lying -
therefor all art is in essence a lie to varying degrees.

to deny this fact is to enter into a state of delusion - does rothko for
example create a lie when he seeks his colour field effects - he creates
atmospheric colour which is pure visual illusion but he does not attempt in
the traditional manner to activate the viewer's sense of touch which deals
with the third dimension.
