Transtic Nerve Posted August 17, 2001 Posted August 17, 2001 What do you think is the boundary of art and sexuality.... I'm gonna post a pic below.... it shows Gackt, a famous Japanese Music person, and Yu, his violinist. If you can't stand to look at art of two guys naked from the waist up, then you need to grow up for one, two you need to study some art. This picture is purely for Artistic means... not sexual.... so cover your eyes kiddies.... * * * * * [img]http://jikannohizumi.net/random/gackt-yu.jpg[/img] If that doesn't work click here: [url]http://jikannohizumi.net/random/gackt-yu.jpg[/url] I think the pic is cute myself :) (if you don't know why, refer to the last line in my sig) but it's very much art.... the artistic aspect in photography is awesome these days. The facial expressions, the color (blue in this case), the position, everything..... Basically what do you think of this pic? Art or something that belongs is PlayGirl (ie: sexual connotation)? BTW keep in mind, sexuality and sexual connotation is very common in most peice of art. And it's considered art itself, by some people. Anyway, just vote, if I get thise poll working -_- if it doesn't work just post your reply BTW I made a banner using that pic and another: check it out.

I know nudity in considered a very prominant art form in Europe.... i think.... In italy, you can see nude photos in artistic views (ie: color, Black and White photo, etc) in magazines.... same with Japan. like this pic... nudity unless ultimately giving off or focusing on the sexual parts, is considered art.... the body is the most artful thing of all.

[/B][/QUOTE] There's another person over there.... i just didn't post it cause the pic is cut in half and his arm is just on the shoulder of the other guy. Anyway, yes Japanese art is in a league of it's own.... thats why so many people see the Mizer pics or the Kyo pics I post they get scared at the way they look.... so many people fail to understand it. And I meantioned the Renaissance because i think thats the most famous period of art where nudity was prominant. Something well known to all people.

Matt.D Posted August 17, 2001 Posted August 17, 2001 [color=teal] It's art to it's fullest....[/color]
BabyGirl Posted August 17, 2001 Posted August 17, 2001 [color=deeppink]It's definitely art. Being a photographer, I recognize the composition and the compassion that is shown in this picture. Be it two males, two females, or two heterosexual humans, any picture that shows compassion is art.[/color]
Treble Posted August 17, 2001 Posted August 17, 2001 The way I feel about the picture its Art in my opinion.
Guest zanza Posted August 17, 2001 Posted August 17, 2001 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Sephiroth [/i] [B]its art, and trust me, I would know.... [/B][/QUOTE] Let's leave that up to the individual to decide, seeing as how this post is called "opinion" and all.
