Steve Jobs, the great modern artist
 

I still did not dare to put this story under "Artists".

Not very clear that if Mr. de Pury is going to retrain in commodities trader Apple, or whether he has anything else on second thoughts, but praise is the fact that he is not afraid of what will laugh at him. Although after the "friendly" Hurst, Jeff Koons and Prince with handbags this turn of events surprise anybody can not.

And you, Volodya, keep in mind when your milk-allergic chocolate also declared a masterpiece of art, will be too late for the head to catch:)


Steve Jobs, the great modern artist

If there is a man whose influence on kuklturu our times as great as the impact of two mega-stars of contemporary art, Daniel Hirst and Jeff Koons, it certainly Steve Jobs. The mention of the founder of Apple, Next and Pixar in the context of art may seem to cause confusion, but in my opinion he is one of the most significant contemporary artists.

For me, its influence and contribution is proportionally larger and more important than those with whom he compares Mr. de Pury. It really great artist transformed the boring hardware and software to the level of works of art.
Steve Jobs even made a regular notebook so beautiful and mind and body:)! Perhaps it is closer to the design, but he has a beautiful design totals. This is already quite modern art. Even if you do not talk about PIXAR - their products and it is art, art of animation.

Just go into opposition. There are still fundamental values. Down sintetichsky chocolate! :)

LCR, and did not realize that Pury going to do with Jobs? Sell sketches ayfon? Which, incidentally, can synchronize with only one computer: (

ready to subscribe to every word. Koons and Hirst pushed "nothing" people who have mostly very faint idea of the art, and maintained at the high-sounding words, and PR. Dzhobbs same does offer a quality product, and seriously every new product ahead of its competitors, who then try to copy the technology of its machines. And cartoons too, which makes Pixar deserves very high praise indeed ... art ... that is why Disney and close in recent years, this can not do ...

In my opinion, Disney quickly sobrazil that is happening and bought Pixar.

true??? when??? sorry, probably will drop the level of ...

As early as 2006. While the fall in rental old projects Pixar quality does not change, then maybe: mad:

Gentlemen!
How many great stories we can expect
in the recognition of consumer goods art!

Here are some of them (well, just can not resist -
"Hand already stretched to the pen ..."):

1. Profession art becomes extremely prestigious and
and scarce. At first, the lack of cover for the brain
by commodity, on and from the markets people will catch up.

2. Forum expects an unprecedented influx of new members.
What subjects, what passions!
For example: Is it worth investing in art in Turkey,
and if so, how many bags it is better to take it.

3. Artistic ratings will be issued as multi-volume.
And imagine how upset Sanya Ivanov when he learns
from the ranking that socks N-Coy factory, which he bought for
Day tanker fall into the category 6B.

4. Finally, to disputes about art join specific
the guys from the security services of large companies, and those disputes will cease
be "intellectual chatter." Will be clogged with arrows to
"Pereteret for art."

5. People are divided into those who can "walk in the arts", "go to
ikusstve, and others.
And may the force be with us. Peace.
