I think I know what you mean. But this attitude to me just seems to be valid for those forms of graphical art that by its very nature is rapid and fluctual. Like Oekaki for example.
"Great" art that took long to finish impacts me personally on a deeper level.
In other words when I saw Die Mühle by Rembrandt for the first time it struck me as deep as a good song does.
If you feel like graphical art has nothing left to explore, like it has a "reach this state and you are done" kind of way, try to find new ways. Our universe is infinite and so are the ways to express feelings in a graphical form.

Love may be like demons poetry, or maybe god loves complex irony.

Maybe we're expose to art for too long until we're "numb" when we see an amazing artwork.I suppose it's the same feeling that musicians will have?After creating and listening to so much good music,they may categorise the music like artists categorise artworks.I think that we should start looking for entirely new artforms and maybe we'll find things that'll inspire us again.

Art is kind of infinite and ever-lasting. But it's how the society works. I'm not a fan of flat-head graphical style but hey, they DO sell. It's just that your so-called 'this kind of art' sells better in the market so people are constantly doing it. It's still possible to break through, but it includes risk too. Just my 2 cents worth.

lol..its like...for everything there's always this particular standard of art that society perceives as very good and everyone is just striving and working hard at tryign to jump into that bandwagon too, just because.

eventually, no matter how nice and good it is, if there's 238978947129875891237 people doing the same kind of nice work...its just nothing much at all in the end. boring.

music on the other hand, is different because there is more depth to explore with. there's definitely that one sure-can-work formula too..that's why there's pop music and stuff..but those don't really leave an impression much either right.

for a good song that lasts, more than just sounding nice, there's way the singer sings it (like sakurai!! ), the emotion. sincerity. soulfulness. pain. the tone. the tune. the lyrics, the way the writer uses different words, to paint you a story, a visual of maybe their personal experiences and feelings? or just about a certain social issue...etc. its just so much more.

hmm..i would say that..for a work to really touch you, it probably has to be something that you really can connect with...and its really art and not just commercialised work. the kind of art you look at in museums and art shows probably? with a story to it that you can relate to personally.

its just like a song, that echos your life experience is one you probably would like better than a dance track that just sounds nice and is catchy but that's all to it.

that's just what i feel regarding such things.

WALL OF TEXT ALERT!
