does
art have rules?
“Anarchy can definitely happen in a piece of art. I haven’t
seen it happen in my work, but it’s possible,” says
the artist
Oliver Herring. “It’s just
a creative possibility—to take something to the extreme—which
I think is creatively very interesting. [...] That’s what
we try to do as artists. We try to push something to the point
of breakage but stop just before. Sometimes we fail—we break
the thing,
we’ve gone too far. It’s important to learn where that breakage point
is in order to set the parameters of what’s possible. Once you know your
parameters, you know what to play with.”
Are there rules to art? Or is art all about breaking the rules? Do you agree
with the statement: “The only rule in art is to break the rules.”
