In her blog on November 22, 2009 Tasha posed the question; "What if someone concluded that vintage art/photography (or whatever you like the most) was no longer considered real art? Would that have any effect on your appreciation for it? Is such a change even possible?"
If someone concluded that my favorite form of art was no longer considered real art, I would be in denial. I do not accept the notion that anyone can close the concept of art and that is what would have to be done in order to exclude my favorite art form. However, if it did happen, I would still appreciate my favorite art form. I just would appreciate it as a separate entity instead of art. For someone to conclude such a thing would be impossible. If we cannot find a definition for art, how can we exclude certain art forms? To deem something as real or unreal art is ridiculous. The concept of art as each of us see it depends on our own taste and someone concluding that my favorite art form was no longer real art would not change my taste in art, it would only make me look at my favorite such as vintage, as a separate category.
