   What if someone get's the word "temporary" tattooed. Funny because tattoos definitely aren't, but then again we are, life is.
   That would be a great painting or art work of any kind. Dutch still life painting with Memento Mori themes give the same vibe. Imagine walking into a museum and seeing a famous Dutch still life from the 17th century and next to it a art instalation, maybe fotography, maybe performance art, who knows, but of a person getting set tattoo. Different ways of expression, centuries apart, still the same theme.
   I should visit more museums.

     @Appelmoesje okay so what you're thinking about is the aesthetics and beauty of art. You like the classical and skillful from what I got. Even those had meanings. The statues you were talking about? Setting beauty standards and morals for anyone walking by them and also painting heros in the most perfect light making them seem above human.
     The thing with as you call it "modern art" or the better word would be "dadaism" is challenging what art even is. After the invention of the camera and photography people didn't see why they should continue taking so much time for so much detail in art. So they started doing what cameras yet had to achieve, color. That's why the first abstract pieces in history are super colorful and play with multiple perspectives in the same object. Perfect example for this is Paul Cézanne. After this art evolved a lot and quickly. People tried capturing different things, feelings even, e.g. expressionism. Art mostly evolved from art and anything that inspired, inspires and will inspire

     @Evdo What are the other ways?
     Art can(could) also be defined by 'that what provokes emotion'.. except that has been ruined by taking it into extremes and shocking being the goal. Things that are beautiful still work as an unspoiled emotion, but is out of modern art mostly. What did i miss?

     @Evdo modern art sucks.. art is not about the idea behind it.
     Art is about the ability, the craft. making stone into a statue, painting by hand not computer etc etc. So art is in decline, has been for a while now.
