Re: [Yasmin_discussions] it is not a starting point//

Hi Simon,
I agree with ur argument:

"Artists are not mechanical devices replicating what is before them. They
are (can) not (be) interested in the appearances of things but in
apprehending them from various points of view. The potential angles artists
might work with can include one or more, and not be limited to,
sociological, political, historical, conceptual, philosophical, physical
and/or emotional"

Artist demonstrates Heidegger's "thrownness", and
Dasein being, when one always finds oneself already in a certain spiritual
and
material, historically, politically conditioned environment, in
the extended world, in which the possibilities is always unlimited.

The artist creates a closed loop 'duree' of art (present= represent).


Best
