something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but also he
wants it to be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public
will listen and understand-he wants to teach them, and
he wants them to learn from him.
What visual artists like painters
want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters
translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to
feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless
billions possible, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to
us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and
colors, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist.
Most artists take their shapes and
colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in movement and rest;
their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at,
and that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that
they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, and that there
is nothing more in it. Yet they do not choose them without reference to the
character of their subjects.
If one painter chooses to paint a
gangrenous(生疮的) leg and
another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a
certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something-all of which means that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying
to teach us.
