If we are talking about Fine Art...
There is a gallery in New York, where as a piece of art was a pile of bricks on the floor in the corner. 6 bricks... In a year, or so, in the same gallery I saw a piece of art, made by the other artist out of 9 bricks. May be this masterpiece was much better? And the artist was much more advanced, as a master? More talented?
But I'm strongly convinced: THAT IS NOT AN ART. This is a FALSEHOOD and SIMPLE LIE.

When the artist creates - the expression of his self is just unavoidable. Even if the one, who is working on canvas, is closer to the truth than others - it is still very hard to hide the personality. On the other hand I strongly believe, that the piece of art must match the the personality yet spiritual content of the author. Real art must be sincere. And the excellent example of this statement are old masters. Rembrandt NEVER lied in his art. Neither did Gerard Ter Borch, Joachim Patinir... or Pieter Bruegel.
Also, I may say: art is a perfect method to DISCLOSE THE HIDDEN.
