Objectives Vs Subjective
Objectivism is the idea that value judgements can be applied to art, in other
words, some art is good and some art is bad.
o Objectivists have a fairly strict definition of what constitutes art,
Regarding it as something that has been produced after a demanding
process.
o Art is generally the preserve of an individual who has received training.
This person the artist then develops a concept, applies his or her
technical skills, and produces an end-product. This can be a piece of
music, a painting, a film, or whatever
o This product can then be judged according to how well-conceived it is,
its level of originality, and the technical skills employed to create it.
Subjectivists argue that a broader definition of art is necessary, and a training
is not a necessity.
o Almost anything can be regarded as art, as the most important
element in the process of artistic expression is the role of the viewer or
audience.
