Art-o-nomics

Art is'nt lost, it perhaps has found new meaning, a new way has been paved, no longer does the glory have to go to a dead guy, he can now be recognised for the work he does in his lifetime. Alot more people now have begun to find the intellectual hint in the world of Art.

Contrary to the classical opinion of art following a method, and hence the interpretation being constant by all has now begun to fade out. Now art is an extraneous body of knowledge i.e our materials put into art and the knowledge of how to use it best, and this is evolved in different various that then takes the face of numerous ways of expression. The expression of the artist. And this in turn may be related to the viewer in varied ways.

INTERPRET THIS!!!!

A friend once told me that he too wanted to learn how to appreciate art. The irony being that it is not something that is learnt, good art can evoke many interpretations, limitless, and none can be incorrect. Modern art more and more is taking the form of abstractions that are not subject to only what the artist tries to put into it. It can catch the viewers fancy in any way and is open.

Today, in changing times, according to an Indian born artist, Anish Kapoor, "Artists excavate meaning, he does not deliver them"

And it is the above sentence that rings through art space and allows it to rosonate through time.

RECESS ADIEU .....

The recession now seems to have eased out, and at the end of it we certainly have learnt lessons that may facilitate keeping its successor at bay, whilst the mixed economy factor & maintaining a balance between indegeneous industry and foreign kept India afloat, China has kept afloat by increasing exports that it earlier restrained (its natural resources) and innovation.

In earlier articles my co-blogger had pointed out how innovation can be an important factor in keeping a stagnation at bay, and ofcourse a recession from digging its heels deep into a country.

While last year France and Japan launched their super fast trains the Shinkansen and the AGV (Automotrice Grande Vitesse), China to nip the recession in the bud has made a new innovation of the Bullet, the fastest train in the world.

The average speed of the high-speed railways is 243 km per hour in Japan, 232 km per hour in Germany and 277 km per hour in France. China’ Harmony Express reached a maximum speed of 394.2 km per hour during trail runs that begun on December 9.

And for the new year with a fresh outlook and new weapons against threats to international economies, China like many other has used an age old tactic to surmount what has surmounted the American Economy.

Alas, the long cold winter is now seeming to be on its last legs, unless a skeptic would pull out Krugman's theories and prove them to be closer to reality!
