What defines fine art? What is it? When a photographer declares themselves to be a fine art photographer (fine artist?) do they suddenly go from being relatively normal to dressing solely in black and wearing a beret? I’ve always wondered.
Now, where did I put my beret?
When someone says “Fine art”, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? You can let me know by clicking here.
When someone says “fine art” to me I think of a piece of art that ticks all the boxes of what we define art as. This could include: choosing an inspiring subject, effective composition, appropriate/effective use of colour, and a strong narrative or emotional content in the piece. Of course art is subjective, that’s just what I see as fine art.
