From what I read, I learned that in this article a living form is what we make art into be. I say this because it is stated in the first page of the article stating that art is not created by humans but by the object it portrays. I say this because I always though when an artist created anything it is what the artist wanted to be portrayed from what he/she thought or pictured. However, from this article it mentions that art is only formed by a human the object is the true artists. On page 2 of the article, the author of the article brings up that abortion is illegal in other countries and found that weapons were being transported to different countries on a ship and wanted everyone to give up their guns for safety.
Most art requires the artist to be one with the object he/she is trying to capture. The object can usually tell a story either by itself or with another object near by it. I say this because two artists, Jennifer Allora and Guilermo Calzadila, they art represents an object. And since their art work it explains what the purpose of this art really is to some people and why some artist think the way they do. That is what I got from the article.
