The context of the work of Arthur Schopenhauer states that fine arts work at the bottom towards the solution of the problem of existence. To be able to understand the true nature of things, of life and existence, we must first ask the question "what is life?"
Can we say that every art answers the question in a way it presents and the language it used? Or must we say that art is the product of human perception and its language is only a reflection?
In every perception, every work of art answers the questions, in every scene, in every statue, every poem; art answers it.
We don't know the inner nature of all life and existence, but because of art, expression exists. Things might be temporary and thus through art, reflection shall be permanent.
The works of poets, sculptors, and many artists contain knowledge and wisdom that should be acknowledged and treasured because out of them is the reflection of the wisdom of the nature of things, the existence and definitely the LIFE!
Wisdom is light; therefore to be able to comprehend, an artist must know his capacity and embrace the culture of others.
Through reading poem or simply looking at the picture, it resembles that we are the miner who buried the conscious experiences of every artist, thus knowledge is being understood.
I love the way that artist leave something for the reader to think and conclude; for Voltaire, the surest way to be a bore is to leave something unsaid.
I say that life has no definite explanation; the existence of art would be your life, Therefore, Get involved. Be bold. Live with your passion!
