What can be observed in the current state of art is a clear sense of detachment and general disinterest on the part of its audience. In people&#8217;s minds, the very concept of art is changing, and what is often defined as art today would hardly have been considered as such only a few years ago. It seems evident that a more selective approach is needed, and not everything that is produced should be passed off as art. <strong>What is lacking is a process of careful selection<\/strong>, often bypassed for commercial reasons; this leads to <em>elevating <\/em>individuals to the status of artist who lack both the structure and the necessary qualities.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The New Frontiers of Technology<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is impossible not to mention technology: we are increasingly prisoners of the unchecked use of smartphones, tablets, computers, and so on. We are no longer the ones making decisions\u2014we have become part of a polarized flow that follows a predetermined direction. It is important to remember <strong>that technology<\/strong>\u2014undeniably a benefit and a tremendous advantage\u2014must be used wisely. <strong>What is needed is an education in the proper use of technology.<\/strong> Improper use of technology can have a negative effect: it can dull curiosity and create the illusion that culture is superfluous, as we feel we have every answer we need just a click away. Here too, what makes the difference is how the information retrieved through search engines is <em>managed <\/em>and <em>assimilated<\/em>. Today, with artificial intelligence, it is possible to produce paintings and images with a single click. But is this Art?<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Capito. Ecco la traduzione corretta:<br\/>The Role of the Artist<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>At this stage, it is of fundamental importance to give value and recognition to the figure of the Artist<\/strong>\u2014a professional who faces the challenging task of giving meaning to contemporary art and who, to do so, also has the duty to seek out new paths and new sources of interest. It is important to specify that the situation described refers to what is observed in Italy, whereas abroad, the state of Art appears to be significantly more thriving. And after numerous\u2014often political\u2014efforts to prevent <em>the brain drain abroad<\/em>, it would be equally important to implement a series of measures to avoid a similar <em>exodus of artists<\/em>, especially for a country like Italy, cradle and homeland of the arts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Reflection on the Role of the Artist in This Complex Historical Moment That Is Penalizing Art In this in-depth feature, we have chosen to dedicate a reflection on the state of Art in Italy, highlighting and analyzing both the well-known issues and the emerging challenges that are increasingly suffocating this world within the country.
