Does an artist’s work record history, is it a signifier of culture, does it teach, is it a communication tool, does it incite conversation or is it only a nice to see and possess? I love the answers on discussion platform Quora. My favorites: an artist is a person who has sold his/her soul to drawing, painting, film and sculpting; A visual artist is an illusionist. S/he can create things that do not exist in reality; A visual artist is a person who creates physical objects based on aesthetic principles, often as a way of representing an idea, be that intellectual, cultural, emotional, or otherwise.
