I thought that "Fine Art" is art that is created primarily for the purpose of being sold...
Cheers, frank "What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof." -- Christopher Hitchens --- Original Message --- From: Mark Roberts <[email protected]> What pretentious twaddle. "Fine Art" is just art that is created primarily for aesthetic purposes. In other words, not "Applied Art": creations that, while they do have aesthetic appeal as a goal, are made primarily for a practical purpose. Any photograph that is made as art (as opposed to, I dunno... rolling up and swatting flies) is Fine Art. The design of the Marc Newson Pentax K-01 is Applied Art. The cute kitten photos you take with it are Fine Art. Whether or not either one is any *good* is a separate and unrelated question. :-) -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
