Art Is About Ideas

Art is about Ideas. Ideas come from the heart and mind of the individual artist, putting everything they have into the artwork. People who view and interpret art are also directly involved in the phrase that “Art is about ideas.” It is up to the individual to interpret art for themselves based on ideas they have constructed in their heads about what art really is. For example, a photo of carefully placed objects could be art to someone because it is based on their ideas about art. Ideas are the building blocks for constructing an artwork. They give an artist a reason to create a piece of art and a way in which they are to complete it. The artworks chosen for this analysis are 'Beside the Garden' by Brian Robertson and 'Do Not Hesitate' by Claudine Hellmuth.

'Beside the Garden' is a collage which includes a picture of a little Asian girl in a pink dress beside a large pink and red hibiscus. The background is light green, palm pattern with Chinese writing and other faded flowers worked into the picture. In the top left hand corner there is a brown circle in which an Asian bride is pictured. The bride is the exact image of what the little girl


The two pictures chosen have many similarities as well as differences. Firstly, both artworks focus on composition, colour, and texture. The choice of each differs a great deal. 'Beside the Garden' uses more vibrant colours than 'Do Not Hesitate' which focuses on more pastel colours. Both paintings decided to use more alarming textures on the main objects of interest and softer backgrounds. This was mainly to create emphasis as was the composition of the collage. 'Beside the Garden' was more disjointed than 'Do Not Hesitate' in which lines seemed to flow freely. The hidden meanings within the pictures are also quite similar. Both have something to do with inner change, whether it be from a girl to a woman or from old to new. 'Beside the Garden' focuses more on physical and emotional change, growing up and change. 'Do Not Hesitate' focuses more on a change of ones' inner self and ones' perspective, values and emotion.
