Im no connoisseur of art, but your animations never cease to amaze. Most KZread animators and content creators have a fixed style they call their own. They also focus on a particular genre, in which they specialize in. However Ted-Ed is different. The animation varies wildly, and i believe it's fitting for the motto of the channel.

Art is personal to every human individual. Your life and experiences may change your perspective on art. Art is something that makes us human, and I truly believe that the intention of creating lives within every human being.

Why is it that people can exactly say what is a good book, a bad one, one with bad grammar, poor story, etc.. but when it comes to painting, its almost a taboo to say some painting is really bad, because it will have different interpretations, etc.. Art being personal is just an idea

@@DinoIAmNoHoster i don't think it's bad but I also think that different people have different tastes. For example I never got into Fifty Shades or Twilight but some people I know love them. (The books and/or the movies). I am a full blown Potterhead and love Hunger Games books and movies on both counts but some people can't stand them. We each have our reasons for liking them or not liking them same with music, painting, art. I do think most art is subjective. Sometimes you might find something where 98% of the people think it is awful or great but as a rule it's much more varied than that. HP and HG that I love and both are very popular in both book and movie genres also both have detractors from people who's opinion I respect. Twilight and 50 shades struck a cord with many of my friends some of them don't like to read but it gave them a reason to pick up a book. HP and HG also got many young people and even adults to pick up a book and even in some cases start to like reading in general especially if they were young when they picked it up.

@@DinoIAmNoHoster Can people say what a good book is? Communication happens between the sender and the receiver. How it is perceived depends a lot on the horizon of the person reading it. Paintings have more dimensions, as they use several methods of communication (words can do that too, but it rarely happens in longer texts as it is difficult to maintain the coherence necessary for a longer work, but poems can use words and letters in many different ways), so it gets even more difficult to read them.

i think the point is to say that art is very subjective, different people different mind different interpretation.

"Do wee need a creator to be able to appreciate the creations?" Wow sounds like a profound theosophical question.

One of the biggest influences of my life was when I was yet a kid, like 13-14 or so, when I stumbled across the essay by Roland Barthes "The Death of The Author". I honestly believe one should separate author's identity and supposed intention behind the work from the work itself as framing imposes a limit of interpretation. We should be able to interpret art, whether it's picture, sculpture or a text, however we want and author's interpretation is just one of very many possible.

That is what Vince Gilligan said about Breaking Bad: that his thoughts on Walter White's intentions and actions were one of many and not necessarily the "correct" ones, and that he loved that viewers had their own interpretations of the unfoldings. Loved that.

In my opinion art has two main characteristics which make it so valuable for humanity: - It's ability to record history and express it , it's ability to record feelings and thinking patterns of past and communicating them to us in the present. - It's capacity to trigger inspiration in human beings in different ways. Since we are all unqiue to some point so our preception of art as well. This brings priceless value to it because world needs inspiration to move forward and progress. So based on these two, I would say that it's helpful to know the meaning of the artist to start your reasoning process about some piece. However the abstract and unique understanding is what eventually trigger the emotions and lead to creative and possibly innovative ideas which move us forward. So I would say I mostly agree with that art has no borders and can be percieved anyhow by anyone unless they sincerely feel what they state they do.

My quick answer before watching the video: Every individual observer decides what art means to them... (Edit:) ...After watching the video I maintain my opinion. All interpretations are valid regardless of artist intent. Is it wrong for me to stand on a chair or sit cross-legged just because the chair manufacturer only intended it as a seat? If I use the chair as a doorstop am I invalidating it? ...lol Creativity inspires creativity. That's the beauty of expression: it leads to more and more novelty (i.e. memes about memes lol). It doesn't matter in what direction an artwork inspires, in my opinion. All that matters is that it inspired. It serves a purpose even if that's unintended.

That's a well written response, I agree with you

I believe I am a little bit of both, I like the idea that there are a lot of interpretations and perspectives of everyone, but I think it is important as well if we hear the artist perspective and put it into consideration.

Can we all just take a moments to appreciate this beautiful piece of art from TED Ed?

Well every artist making an art has their own reasons for making it and their reasons bring life into those paintings some people might study the painting by just one look and explain it but the artist might have spent years cultivating his artwork for people to understand the true meaning behind their creativity.. like a child's parents know them the best in the same way the artist knows their painting the best and that's the true reason that it is living forever in an art museum!! I like every creative topic Ted Ed chooses to explain!! Great 👍

This was amazing. Thank you for the continuous stunning works

Those animations were just spectacular. Mind-blown!!

Your animation is art at its finest. Love it!

Great video, I think both options are useful and compatible. Art is a conversation, sometimes between the artist and the audience, sometimes just among the latter.

Well, I'm kind of on a middle ground, but I think it in musical terms, because most of the time I like to know that there is a deeper meaning behind what I'm listening too. I take it into consideration, but it also helps knowing most musical artists don't seem to mind if you have a different interpretation of their songs. And they are self aware of the fact that it can/will be interpreted in many ways.

I thought you're going to try to explain what is and what isn't art. What make art 'art'. But this was great too. Also,the animation style is so beautiful 🧡

All forms of art (from paintings, sculptures, cinemas, comics, to abstracts) have artists' intentions/motives/meanings/inspirations. The problem is not every artist dictates/mentions/stipulates/discusses her/his intents either directly or otherwise. Another possible way to extract meanings or motives behind the art work(s) is the context of the times (art historians actually do so in case artists left almost nothing in writing or notes whatsoever). Anyways, art is in the eye of the beholder!

Thank you for your information! Love from Indonesia

We feel moments of flight like the sea foam and the splash of stars upon a vast ocean of space. A work of art evokes feelings in us to express what the artist perhaps also felt. Meaning comes later as a story of what we felt in the moment.

art has different interpretations from different interpreters, but when you find analogies between those interpretations that's what makes an art a great one.

I love the animation on this video. And it was really interesting, thank you :)

This channel is art itself that gives the universe meaning!!!

I love sharing my interpretations with my friends and hear theirs, so i'm definetly don't think that a painting or an art object can have only one and only interpretation. It would be so boring and i don't think that art wants to be that.

This is beautiful, like art is, everything is beautiful, everything is art ❤️

After that, it's up to the viewing audience to decide what it means to them ( art ) and how well it conveys whatever they think is the message. Great Valuable Video

I think what the artist is trying to convey is more important than anyone's opinion of the art. The draw of the art scene for me, is trying to figure the meaning out or not thinking too deep into it. Just enjoying the piece for what it is . I prefer performance art myself whereas I feel there is more room for interpretation.

I just came here to de-stress from some homework I was having trouble with. Thanks for this.

The artist's intent is always the final verdict. Art is a form of communication and a listener cannot decide what the speaker is trying to tell them. However ambiguity can be the intent; the speaker might not always be stating something but sometimes asking questions, and different answers within defined proportions might be what the artist intended. This is the route followed by the greatest of artists, whose works are always somewhat open to interpretation. The intent can't be ambiguous, but ambiguity can be the intent.

YESSS ANOTHER ART RELATED VIDEO THANK YOU TED ED

I personally think the interpretation of art is different from person to person which is also kinda what makes it special And if you think about it a lot of art other than visual also has differences in interpretation like music or a film

Liked before watching, I've been asking this with regards to music.

Art should be ambiguous, that's what makes it last forever.

Just what I needed.... Ted ed videos are ❤❤❤

Wow this is astonishing and beautiful.

Great artwork reference!... OK coming to the debate, the artist's intention should come out of his 'choice' not by some 'chance' . Whatever comes out of his choice speaks his expertise and that from chance comes out of just luck.

I think both intention and interpretation are important; as intention could create a new perspective on someone's interpretation and change it in a good way. On the other hand, if I were an artist, I'd make my intentions clear as day so that there is no room for interpretation. That probably isn't possible, as I will interpret a song to represent something that was not originally intended for example, but still.

This piece is filled with thought-provoking knowledge. Engaging with a book with parallel content was an incredible experience for me. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint

Our interpretation is what really matters to us, author's attention doesn't matter to our opinion, I think good art is when we are the much closest to what the artist wanted to do

_Arts meaning is at the individuals interpretation._

I really appreciate how the chef tossed that cupcake on the client's face😂

As always, great animation!

This was really fascinating

I believe the whole meaning of art lies in the way each of us percieve it..and our perceptions naturally differ....an artist's intentions may or may not be different from ours but the art holds meaning from what we take from it

Oddly enough, the same can be said for music (in a way). How did the composer want this piece to be interpreted. (Depending on the piece or composer, many answers are right) Great job Ted-Ed

I actually liked the painting used as example!

2:14 THE SHADE!!!!! I CAN'T!!!

Perfect timing I have to learn about art ahhhhh life's easy

As an artist myself🎭🖼🎨, the intention of my work vs. the way it's interpreted is something that often comes to mind. I'm a "middle ground" person myself.

I think we should have both interpretations of art. That’s why we have untitled paintings but also very specific descriptive titles with backstories

I love this! Thanks

Great content. As always

Please make a video on the Sator Rotas square!!! Everyone like this!!!

That is why last year I saw a painting sold for USD 2.5 million which was nothing but a white canvas with a single red line running diagonally across the whole canvas. I bet the creator of the painting must be laughing dead after the auction. But hey that is what art is now a days. Beauty really lies in the eye of the beholder.

I believe the artist's (painter, author, musician, etc.) intention is important due to the fact that the insights gained from some works of art have lead to action being taken. Sometimes positive, and sometimes negative, but regardless, the negative can be mitigated if the artist's intentions are known (for most works of art). I also personally hated having to interpret what a dead author meant by his/her book and being judged on my interpretation. However, I believe you should be able to enjoy the artist's work before knowing their intent, sit on it a while to see what your subconscious gains from these insights and once solidified, learn of the artist's intent. This allows you to get personal insight into yourself, learning more about yourself, and then still potentially absorbing the intent the artist sought to portray.

Well said

We all have different backgrounds and therefore interpret things differently. At my university, they say that your analysis is acceptable as long as you have evidence. The author/artist will leave clues, but we have also been told that "the author is dead", which is a good way of looking at it. We cannot discuss the artist's intention, only the intention of that specific artwork/text. It can still mean something else to you on a personal level, but when you have all the tools to analyze it, you will probably see something else than if you let your heart and personal experiences be in charge.

I really enjoyed this♡

In my opinion, the author's interpretation is THE interpretation, and the one that gives the piece meaning, because preceded it's creation, and not the other way around; however, any individual can have a singular interpretation of the piece of art, but this would be in a lower category than the author's.

Ok suppose there was a certain incident that happened in your life of deep emotional significance, and a piece of art represents, captures or reminds you of that incident. Then, what if it means more to you than what it meant to maybe even the artist? Will you rob somebody the chance to enjoy this art on a whole new different level with such a sweeping, mechanical statement? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, although the artist's intention can offer interesting insight. It's highly situational and relative, so we can't generalize.

Your videos are so intersting and factual

It depends on the nature of the art work itself. Without forgetting the fact that each individual receive the work differently, there's common elements that we samely perceive and deal with, but at a primitive level, and before any kind of rational interpretation, which leads to different results depending on everyone's background. Still, there's a lot of sorts of what we may call "common artistic ground" which may bridge the gaps between different visions and understandings, that doesn't come without a cost for sure, cuz when taking that to the extreme, we face a big problem that contradicts with the very essence of art, since the diversity in vision-ways enrich the view. At the end, we should agree that a sky is a sky, and a tree is a tree, before deciding -either individually or collectively- what the sky and the trees mean.

I think it'd be cool if the artists' intentions and my interpretation were the same. After all we always liked those who understand us and I think that's what we want when we see someone's artwork.

I definitely think that the artists crafts for the audience. However, I would also say that art can be transformational for the viewer thereby bringing the audience which is slightly out of alignment with the language the artist is speaking into alignment with the artist's message. This I think is more valuable as it is stretching an individual's mind to intake an alternative viewpoint. Preaching to the choir is okay but transformation is more profound.

I love the voice of the one speaking

You decide. I believe it’s all up to interpretation, and how a work speaks to you in particular.

I'm an artist myself and I like to leave my artworks open to interpretation

Ted ed always paints a masterpiece

Wonderful

I always thought of this. I thought the same for music. Whenever i listen to a song, i let it sink in and imagine the view and create my own scenery and storyline. Then when i see the original music video and artists involved, i get very sad and unmotivated when i come to know what the song really is about and that my favorite 5 seconds of that melody was just a filler.

MY DEFINITIVE ANSWER: The intention of the artist is relevant to the extent that 1) we can access that knowledge (abt their intention) 2) the artist is very intentional and deliberate to the point of being deeply philosophical in their work. But, the case can be made that there might be subconscious elements that are found in a piece of art that even the artist was not consciously trying to imbue their artwork with. I like how we are able to critique and view the same works of art today that multiple generations before us each had their own view of. I'm inclined to think that we are more privileged than them because 1) they were - in general - less open to various interpretations, since there were periods before where you had to fit in established schools of thought and there wasn't that climate of truly unfettered criticism of art and the production of art. We live in a more relaxed and open society than ever before. 2) we have the advantage of being the last ones to have our say on these works, i.e. the benefit of surveying all the different interpretations of the past, and then having our own more-informed interpretation.

Art is like life, you have to find your own meaning for it.

What I see in the paintings is beauty but not to touch or keep but just to see, or something like that

One of the best Teded video

Loved it.

I agree that intentions of the original artist are important as there is one piece of information that it likely to be lost otherwise. Suppose there are 10 paintings which the artist uses to weave a coherent idea. Each of them *must* be interpreted in a fashion conceived by the artist to bring about the intended result. However, if different interpretations are to be taken into account after independently analyzing each painting, it is next to impossible that one might accidentally stumble upon a coherent enough idea rivalling that of the artist. As such, I believe that instead of asking the question of "who", we should instead be focusing on experiential value, arguable parameters, information etc. That way, these aspects would merely be a means to the result.

Just imagine if we considered rhetoric, conversation, and/or news with this much deliberation. Though, it would probably help if we could all agree that compassion is actually a good thing, first.

I´m a hobby painter. My painting has a meaning to me & i enjoy doing it for me. That means : At the time, i am not cocern with the other people oppinions , if they like it or not, if i make good money by selling it or not. perhaps later but not as i´ m by painting. Once it´s done, i´d like to share & discuss my ideas with others, but for simplicity let´s say : my job is done. What the others think about it, its their own evaluation, which are valuable to me , but not realy or truly my own.

1:03 "Red Bull gives you wings!"

For me art is something that artist is trying to catch that uncatchable Moment, the present which is here forever but still different. It is something that is in human subconciousness from the beggining. Even with the music, whole orchestra could be just one single moment fractalized into infinity orders of harmony. Every artist is trying to tell us : dont wait for tommorow but live now in present, it will be here forever

I'm firmly in the camp that art stands on its own. Understanding the artist's intentions *may* help an observer come to understand or appreciate a piece of art, but they don't define its meaning. Meaning and even beauty are objective concepts, in my opinion.

Art is... EXPLOSION!💥💥

This works with both art and poetry. Authorial intent is most important, but you can connect a work to things in your own life to give it a meaning in your personal context. You cannot, however, say definitively what the author was saying with their text. For example: would you go up to a famous author or artist and tell them exactly what their work means, even calling them wrong if they argue? But at the same time, a lot of what goes into art/literature is subconscious or unintentional. I find this a lot editing people's poems and short stories. Elements they didn't expect just end up there and can alter the interpretation.

@marsha-madness-super-badness

5 жыл бұрын

A lot of people would argue or insist that their meaning is just as important as the artists. To be honest there aren't many artists that are willing to be frank and say "This is what it is, your opinion comes second". Some fans would be highly offended. What's of most importance to them is what they felt or learned, not the art or the artist. In their eyes those things are second. They believe they have the final say because that's supposedly the definition of art in a nutshell. So, yeah they'd argue.

Awesome and informative video

Hi I am 36th so quick.... THNX TED ED FOR EDUCATING US

If art is expression then the artist's intention is paramount to the the piece's value as an artistic expression. Whether or not you see beauty in a misinterpretation doesn't change that- if you see something different than the artist intended then the artist has failed to express his or herself.

I think the order of importance is like this : - what the artist wanted to do (if it's something ambitious) - how he did it (is it good or bad ?) - how well we interpreted it (are we close to what the artist wanted us to see ?) - finally, are we impressed ? (If we liked the object)
