Picasso said he spent half his life trying to paint like a child.
I've spent most of my life trying to avoid it – what a mess.
But we can understand his drift -,or can we?

Often we seek to
either mystify or demystify
Art
Why?
![Page 4: Art Business LIfe](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052601/559892231a28ab03718b468b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What makes art anywayand how does it gain
mysticism?

Is this art?
One of the original four. When trying it out I lost control due to the absence of brakes.A remarkable oversight for race determined to take over the world

Are these 3 meter high painted buildings art?

Used here in Pink Floyd's The Wall.Pink Floyd - Ronald Searle - Alan Parker
Was The Wall an art form?

Or this for Terry Gilliam?

'Planet 247' – H stage Shepperton Studios Alien had some challenging briefs – and difficult problems.
Note painted landscape on cyc

Many things about Alien are now part of film mystic.
This is the 'oiled' down interior of the Nostromo in 'C' Stage Shepperton.Note the studio wall and mirror. Is art involved in this?

So how does something become art and gain mysticism?

St Francis of Assisi described art thus:-
The doing with the hands is the labour
The doing with the hands and mind is the craft
The doing with hands, mind and heart is the art
The patron saint of animals an expert on art?

Giotto painted St Francis extensively and was a founderof the Florentine Renaissance.
There is real emotion.We are includedin the event.
Which is exactly what St Francis did with his theatrical Biblical shows.
He brought the bible alive and made it relevant

ALIEN went on to become one of the top ten Si-Fi films of all time. It reinvented the genre.

The David must be in the top ten sculptures of all time
It was also vandalised within two weeks of being exhibited
![Page 17: Art Business LIfe](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052601/559892231a28ab03718b468b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The 4 ton marble block of
unbelievable purity was
mythical before Michelangelo was
born
![Page 18: Art Business LIfe](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052601/559892231a28ab03718b468b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
His genius lies in choosing the moment before the event.
He cut the 'Gordon Knot' by twisting the torso to accommodate the narrowness of the block.
Just think, two tons of marble pushing down through those ankles.
One false chisel mark in four years would have ruined the block, him and Florence. No Sistine Chapel, no . . . .
![Page 19: Art Business LIfe](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052601/559892231a28ab03718b468b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The block was only two foot wide at this point and had defied two earlier sculptors
In his time art had to display perfect detail.It was also very political
![Page 20: Art Business LIfe](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052601/559892231a28ab03718b468b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Nearly 60 years of contant striving later, his chisels reveal something else is trying to escape.
Is it here, that perhaps the 'Divine'
Michaelangelo, is trying to carve the unobservable.
![Page 21: Art Business LIfe](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052601/559892231a28ab03718b468b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Art contains something indefinable beyond execution of craft.
2,500 years ago Plato developed his Theory of Forms of which art was one.
We can never experience pure Form on this world.
Justice is also a Form but the pure Form of Justice can never exist on earth, we only have
approximations of it.
Only the immortal soul can journey in the realm of Pure Forms.
![Page 22: Art Business LIfe](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052601/559892231a28ab03718b468b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
We experience art in many forms; in business, in sport, in life.
Art can help develop our own philosophy, providing a cause
higher than our daily distractions.

To quote Ernest Short“The Painter in History”
“As for the fair fruit, those who would saviour it's rich variety may well be thankful if they can say . . .
'I know what I like' ”

There are many ways to paint.This is but one.
Art expression celebrates individuality
