What does it mean to be an artist? I think being an artist means having a perspective and being able to manipulate things in the world to present it as best you can. What is the function of art? If you’ll accept a Sunday-school answer: beauty. As far as I can tell, the choices are to waste and consume or to create, add something to the world, and move culture forward. The function of art is to counter waste, destruction, and awfulness with beauty. What is more important to you the process or the result?

What does it mean to be an artist? Artists do not create, they restore existing elements to life. Artists are interpreters, translators of emotions, ideas or random thoughts that sometimes are complex to understand or too mundane that we may take it for granted. That said, doctors, lawyers, drivers, teachers, painters, dancers, and any other person can be an artist translating the world around them to connect with other human beings. What is the function of art? Do you label yourself as an artist?

Silent Dreaming: Cinema Minima’s “A Night With Maya Deren”. January 9, 2013. Here’s one thing to recommend the work of Maya Deren, an experimental filmmaker active in the 40s and 50s: you can watch her complete oeuvre in less time than it takes to get through. The Godfather: Part II. I got my introduction to Deren’s work on Sunday night at Cinema Minima’s. Deren’s best-know film is her first completed short,. Meshes of the Afternoon.
