Q: Do you think if the audience does not receive the same aesthetic emotion that the artist intended the art work is a failure?
Art is so open to interpretation now that it is often misinterpreted either by over-analyzation, under-analyzation or misleading information. Personally I think that art does not need to be put under such scrutiny that a pass or fail mentality is formed. If a group of people look at the same work of art, chances are not every person will have the same aesthetic emotion evoked and the same goes for the most successful works of art. Just because the art did not cause the same emotions to be felt as the artist does not mean it will be a failure. Not everyone will enjoy a work of art, but this doesn't mean its value is diminished.
