The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really we know nothing about each other.

I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about.

Ask away. Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you

what an interesting question...

...i'd have to say music.
i have some seriously unpopular opinions when it comes to art though. i don't believe in art for art's sake. i believe that art has to have an audience and express something to someone in order for it to be art. art in that it carries a connotation of being worth something. it can't just exist in a vaccuum or the artist's mind and still qualify. it has to be at least partiall coherant.
which in my opinion, leaves out jackson pollack and some a-tonal music and performance art.
As to particulars, i very much like michelangelo and bernini's sculpture, shakespeare and sophocles and brecht for plays, sharon olds and e.e cummings and james dickey for poets, the cohen brothers and peter jackson and julie taymor for directors, bach, lizt, schubert, wagner and mozart as composers (and probably others that i'm not thinking of at the moment)and jacek yerka, alphonse mucha, albrecht durer for visual art.
so you get a very long response.
