Art......what is it? My friend and I walked around the latest offering from the WA Art Gallery." Van Gogh to Dali", the posters proclaimed and yes both artists are represented with one or two offerings. We spent a good two hours discussing the merits of the various pieces from the traditional to the less than and whilst we saw merit in most, the packet of Cat Litter (yes you read correctly) left us both shaking our heads and discussing what is Art.
Above are two favourites. The first my friend would have happily taken home for her lounge; whereas my favourite was this masterpiece by Picaso. It was stunning. But then what appeals to one does not necessarily do the same for others.
I thought the idea of encouraging budding artists of any age a great innovation with these two designated areas. One for still life, the other for the self-portrait, with both styles being clearly represented in the exhibition.
