The most stunning painting of the 21rst century
It
is not the most stunning painting, because it has been painted so well or because
it is a work of genius, but because it is the first time, to my knowledge, that
an artist admits,
that the painting stemmed from inability:
From
the inability, not only, to see connections and to apply them in a bigger picture,
the inability to apply knowledge gained from religion and science in such a
useful manner,
that the durability of the planet is guaranteed, from the inability to love
ones environment, in such a way that the environment returns that love in equal
amounts,
the inability to maintain durable relationships such as marriage, by dealing
with inconsequentially with knowledge gained from literature and own experience,
from the inability, to stay without financial debt.
The most stunning painting of the 21rst century came into existence from the
inability to value everything that matters in live on its own specific value
and not just on its financial value,
the inability to organise the world, in such a way that most people participate,
can live healthy and in acceptable circumstances.
from the inability to share limitless wealth of the planet that there is no
more need to fight wars or revolutions,
the inability to understand and respect each other, that all nations cooperate
in a constructive manner, the inability, to apply our acquired technology to
use the infinite supply of energy, without destruction of the nature, that we
rely depend on.
The artist struggled to finish this painting from the inability to get to form
a solid statement, supported by his colleagues, concerning what art can do and
how to proof
that art really contributes to the welbeing of humanity, the inability from
the painter, to come to a strong composition, that tells a good story with clear
shapes,
seducing the viewer to enter the painting and start the yourney on the canvas,
like the painter did while making it.
Yet
there is sufficient reason to believe, that this manure of inability something
sustainable blossoms.
There is an unbelievably constructive force at work, offering great abilities
and that luckily is embodied in all of us; the untamable urge to reproduce.
