so you think that setting rules and restrictions allow us to think easier or more effectively ? It's interesting since most of the problems we solve are really broken down into smaller problems and solved by following the rules. However i think that this Nobuyoshi Araki's remark is directed towards creativity, if there are no rules everything is allowed and there is no tension between society and work of art. Whereas if work of art is challenging some societal rule or stereotype it becomes hallmark, maybe for change. Cheers!

Yes, in certain pieces I do but it can also fetter/imprison mankind! That goes for 80 procent of the mass. These 80 procent, doesnt want/need or wish to think independently because there is comfortable social rules to follow.
10 procent can easier brake rules and restrictions, except for those rules as already are more or less fixated, as gravity, Mathematics and Physics.
...what I meant in my former sentence - is that, we set rules and restriction, unconsciously - - until someone else come and identify them for us. Then, may be those limitations be changed.
In regard to, art or photography, there is no new innovate forces/power because everything has already been photographed/painted/written/filmed.

Rule #5: Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is nonexistent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery—celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from—it’s where you take them to.”
..read the very last sentence, several times! That is interesting.

ReplyDeleteSo, what does it mean? We, human beings set the rules and restriction, always.
