Art or not Art?


Cory Arcangel: Super-Mario Clouds, 2002

The description of Super-Mario Clouds, 2002:
  
Super-Mario Clouds is based on the game of Super Mario Bros. The artist just use the background and remove the main character. The video is about the clouds moving.

Art or not Art:

I think that Super-Mario Clouds, 2002 is not an art work. It is because refer to the reading of Adams, Art has content, but in Super Mario Clouds , we just see the clouds moving without any usage or meaning. Also, Art has an aesthetic, I do not think that Super Mario Clouds have any aesthetic value because of the art form is just watching a cloud moving.Finally, Art has a message to audience, Super Mario Clouds can not give a feeling or message to audience.

  1. BLAKE: Super Mario Clouds is an interesting idea. It removes the characters of the game. The audience may only focus the background of the game. It is shock to me.However, I think it lacks visual element. So I also think it is not an work of art.
