Day 2

Tuesday

28 – Jan - 2014

Today firstly we had discussion about what is art, how it important for us and how it gives us satisfaction. Then we talked about what is installation. Then we moved to Aiweiwei’s movie- Aiweiwei Never Sorry. It was really interesting movie. It inspired me. He is Chinese contemporary artist, active in sculpture, installation, photography, film and social, political and cultural criticism. I liked his art works as well as openly working for people.

Then we had discussion and debate on these topics-

1.     Who is artist?

2.     Is it essential to be an activist?

3.     Who is not artist?

We had divided into three group and given a topic. Firstly we among us and we had a debate. It was really fun. Every group performed well. Because we couldn’t come up one final idea while debating we clash had among us only. While working as team we have been together. But everybody has their own perspective. I think it happens. But that doesn’t mean that we were not worked as a group.

Finally we came up with these answers-

1-    An individual who consciously express themselves with a motive, medium and methodology.

2-    No. An artist is not essential to be an artist but an activist is an artist.

3-    A non artist is a person who does not express with an intension of aesthetical expression.
