Thoughts on art
Art (from tempt tvoriti )
tempt (experience)
I would say the experience of knowing God.
"Be perfect as your Father in heaven."
In contrast to the classical monasticism and art in its highest sense, is a monk in the world.
Pushkin, Velasquez, Mozart, Bach, Massov.
"By their fruits ye shall know them."
They have no direct followers (not possibly be a little Mozart), but they give a new impetus to the spiritual development of mankind.
Creativity can not exist without a spiritual context, otherwise it loses its meaning.
The artist does not show the external reality, but internal and external works through it.
Why I can not agree with what is happening in contemporary art.
Because the lower instincts that persistently preached, not only can contribute to development, but on the contrary, hinder him.
All that leads to destruction, contrary to the laws of God and therefore life itself.
"The whole visible world - barely noticeable touch to the vast nature. Human thought can not afford to cover it. Though we have pushed the limits of our spatial representation, still in comparison with existence we generate only atoms. Universe - it is not borderless area, its center everywhere, circumference - nowhere. And the greatest proof of the omnipotence of the Lord is that before this thought in confusion solidifies our imagination. "
Blaise Pascal
When you start to think in such categories, what all this garbage that floats on the surface of every century of human existence?
