 Posted: Thu Dec 06, 2007 7:37 pm Post subject: The Healing Power of Fine Art is Everyone’s for the Taking |
    |

They say Fine Art has been proven to have immediate and lasting healing power to those who are exposed to it regularly. In the past, hand painted Fine Art has not been available to the average consumer, now with the rise of the Oil Painting Reproduction industry, the healing power of Fine Art is everyone's for the taking!
The relatively new industry of Oil Painting Reproductions now provides the opportunity for the average consumer to own their very own piece of Hand Painted Fine Art. Many consumers are no longer satisfied with sterile prints and posters and opting for their own affordable Oil Painting Reproduction.
Indeed, it has been predicated that in the next ten years, Oil Paintings will become an essential part of every home.
Are you ready for it? |

Based on the username, I'm not expecting a reply, but I'll speak my mind anyways: Are you saying that Warhol's concept of mass produced screen printing (or computer printing) interpreted in a different, more traditional, medium, somehow makes art 'more' therapeutic? What you're posing is exactly what it sounds like: a pop-psych sales pitch. I don't believe that collecting copies of art, regardless if they are hand-painted, differs psychologically from medium to medium (unless one has a photograph of a sculpture versus the actual sculpture itself). Similarly, one can listen to their favorite composer on a CD or see a live interpretation of it, but considering that the pianist is playing from the original notes, is there really any difference?
I agree that a painting with real texture ads to the atmosphere, but I don't agree that one should purchase copies of copies. I hope that art has a revival among the common classes so people stop wasting their money on this kind of crap. There is too much art out there that hasn't yet been discovered to support copiers. I'm talking to you Damien Hurst. |
