The house has to serve comfort. The work of art is revolutionary; the house is conservative.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The work of art shows people new directions and thinks of the future. The house thinks of the present.
Consider your house from an aesthetic point of view.
I love the idea of modern art in a home that isn't totally modern. There's a certain energy that comes out of that juxtaposition.
I'm innately conservative, and painting is an ideal place to exercise a progressive conservatism. I operate well within limits.
Unfortunately, the more chaotic the society, the greater is the desire for conservative, nonconfrontational art.
A house is very much like a portrait. I cannot disconnect houses from people. The thought of arrangement, the curves and straight lines. It gives an indication of the character at the heart of it.
I grew up in a very conservative home.
Every decorative piece in this house is my feeling, my choice.
Does it follow that the house has nothing in common with art and is architecture not to be included in the arts? Only a very small part of architecture belongs to art: the tomb and the monument. Everything else that fulfils a function is to be excluded from the domain of art.
The house has to please everyone, contrary to the work of art which does not. The work is a private matter for the artist. The house is not.
