Manifesto:
1)
Only aesthetic ≈ Art
Only meaning ≠ Art
Aesthetic > Meaning
2)
Only Aesthetic ≈ Meaning
Only Meaning ≠ Aesthetic
Aesthetic > Meaning
3)
Unlike meaning, beauty can be physically felt by every living being. Moreover, beauty can be expressed mathematically
Contemplation aesthetic = Physically feeling pleasant
Contemplation meaning ≠ Physically feeling pleasant
Aesthetic > Meaning
4)
A cloud is beautiful by itself. When we assign meaning to a cloud, it becomes either 'good' or 'bad', thereby losing the Integrity of one's natural beauty. Aesthetics does not require interpretation; it is self-sufficient.
Meaning increases OR devalues beauty.Aesthetics always make meaning feel more beautiful.
Aesthetic > Meaning
5)
Creating new aesthetic = creating new sensory experience
Life experience = sensory experience * (adaptation/interaction skills + random life factors).
Creating new aesthetic = life experience
Aesthetic > Meaning
P.S. God forbid life has meaning!
Then all beauty will disappear.
Auction Philosophy:
Art is tired of the excessive focus on meaning. Focusing on aesthetics during the creative process is a wonderful way to unlock new and unexpected technical, aesthetic, and narrative techniques within the artist.
Refined art has grown weary of overcomplicated curatorship. In today’s world, art absorbs all shades of reality and often lies between the refined and the casual. Contrast is essential.
Gallery Concept:
The Labyrinth Gallery is designed to captivate and immerse visitors in the exquisite worlds of contemporary digital art stars, enhancing their sensory and aesthetic experience in a gamified format. The labyrinth is enclosed, as great art leaves a lasting imprint on your perception of the world.
