More specifically, some artists have emplyed the use of decaying animal corspes and photos of deceased human fetuses as part (or sometimes the whole) of their art pieces. What do you think?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Uh, yuck! If thats the case than you could consider the killings of a certain serial (spelling?) killer art.
Is this ethically wrong?
------------------------
Probably not, unless you are the one who took the life of the animal. It leads to that serial (spelling?) killer art thing again.
Is it acceptable because its caged under the category of "capital A art"?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Capital A art?
Should there be limits placed on what we can use to express ourselves?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
There should be limits of a sort. Once again the serial (spelling?) killer art thing again. Taking a life, or anything that harms a person physically is definelty a big limit. Its like freedom of religion. Should a person be able to burn someone as a steak, b/c their religion dictates it is right?
To them it is art. So, it just depends on how you look at it. Personally, my idea of art is a good book, a good song, a good rpg, a good movie, and a good anime. Its that "certain point of view" thing again. Curse you Obi Wan Kanobi!
Of course, I'm not a big fan of some nut splashing paint on a canvas and calling it art. The last time I went to an art exhibit, some of my friends tried to analyze some of the paintings. I decided that some of the so called artists need to stay off the drugs.
Now I have a painting of Aurora Borealis (~sigh~ Spelling?), and a picture I took of the phenomenon. I still think its better in real life, pictures don't do it justice. Then there are some wonderful picture of Glacier Bay National Park that I consider art. Especially, during the different seasons. That is a beautiful place to vacation, and enjoy some peace and quiet. In fact there is a really nice hotel in that area of Canada that is wonderful for a little peace and quiet. Prince Albert, or Prince something or other. Haven't had time to vacation in a long time. A good picture of that with the mountains and the lake in the background, now that is art! Of course I prefer pictures of nature over some of the strange stuff people call art.
