Pure Art is the treatise that purely abstract
concepts and intentions in the creation of art, naturally, still follow the physical laws
of a specific multiverse. Despite the seeming randomness of
non-objectivism; basic physical laws (such as balance and composition) still
affect aesthetics in the drive for pure abstraction. The difficulty in
widespread acceptance of this idea has more to do with the lifecycle of art
through the ages than actual recognition of the basic concepts. Pure
abstraction is only a century old. If we breakdown the exploration of Art
to a timeline of human existence, this is what we are left with:
- Cave
painting was Art’s birth
- the
Greeks engaged our learning throughout its toddler years with the
discovery of aesthetic perfections
- the
Renaissance and onward through the times of Ruben and El Greco, were Art’s
turbulent rebellious teenage years where the rules were bent and broken
but hidden behind the illusion of realism; the Catholic Church was the
parental figure that punished and rewarded creative duties
- while
the often-considered rebels of early-twentieth century movements that
ultimately led-to modern art are more accurately the mature embrace of
early-adulthood and the natural human sense of experimentation with
purpose
- Art
is now in middle-adulthood, that moment when understanding accompanies
both a heightened comprehension of the effects of theorizing the future as
well as recognizing past opportunities, both missed and embraced
Like theoretical physics, Pure Art redefines the
differences between that which is true and what is possible. If the
human mind can conceive a unique idea or angle to existing laws, than that mere
conception makes it a logical possibility or truth. - North
