Literary Salon: Can art really be great if no one else thinks so?
A discussion about the role an audience plays in making an artist great
I asked this question on Twitter last week and found the conversation completely enthralling. I’d love to know your thoughts.
Think of all the “great artists.” Then answer this question:
Can art really be great, if no one else thinks so?
I would think not, it's like a Turing Test but for Content. My thesis here: https://russellsapalmer.medium.com/the-content-turing-test-d39e9765de19
Yes. Any and all art forms are great when it evokes a response, whether that response is positive, negative or neutral from the one connecting to it.
