A great work of art is not so much about something, nor does it have a specific meaning or value. A great work of art is, after all, an animated object in moving time, the meaning of which is up to the viewer. Art has no intrinsic meaning. This is its power, its mystery, and hence, its attraction. Art is free. It stimulates the viewer to insert their own meaning, their own value. So while one might have this or that intention in creating their art, realize fully that any meaning or value art might have comes exclusively from the beholder. Art's role is to provoke, to raise questions that only the audience can answer. This is the highest value of any work of art, not predetermined meaning, but meaning gleaned from the experience of the encounter. The encounter is my interest, not the meaning. If meaning is the point, then propaganda and advertising is the forum. The meaning of a great work of art is whatever you wish to make of it.
This is its power.
