WHAT GOES ON IN THE HEAD OF AN ARTIST

Since always, for the rest of the company outside the art, the artist has been a mere maker of luxury objects at the service of the religious interests of the rulers or of the same state. Was asked for and produced the lavish elements of propaganda. The same sensitivity, or the process of the work, activate the reflection of the artist on his own work. The Enlightenment, and later that fundamental change that assumes the Romance —which yet live— along with the release of the order, led to the change to an artist-maker ideas intertwined with his work. Because it is the practice that determines thought, although the artist does not become a pure theoretician; there lies the fundamental difference. The theorist can make all kinds of wild imaginings about the art: social, economic, political, or whatever they may be, but it will always be away from the practical realization and concrete work. Will be alien to that wonderful process of excitation that leads the artist to perform the work through the reality of the world that surrounds it, what your mind came up.
