ummmm without art… we wouldn’t have anything. We wouldn’t have the houses we live in because someone had to design them. Nore would they be painted in a pleasing way. We wouldn’t have the cloths we ware because someone had to create them. We wouldn’t have the history we have because a huge amount of the history we know of a culture is by looking at the art they left behind. You wouldn’t have tv or movies because theres no one to sketch the scenes out on the plot boards. no set design. no costume design. no writers to write the scripts. No music. No books. No pretty discriptive lables on the things we buy because someone has to design/draw/create those too. Oh and you wouldn’t have your car,plane,tractor,cell phone, computers so on so forth because those too have creative teams/designers who work with those all so important Science guys. I could go on but I think the point has been made.

Without art, the world would be nothing.
Nothing at all.

@ Giz: I completely agree with you. Initially I felt one way, but reading all of the comments on here has made me stop to think about it from a different point of view. I didn’t have all of the facts before I formed my opinion and I am glad I stopped by here to read these comments and change my mind.

@ Raz: I feel kind of bad for your 5 year old child that you have already decided for them that they can’t be an artist. That means if they have a passion for dance, music or writing novels the world could lose a very valuable artist. Thank goodness John Lennon’s parents didn’t decide to keep him from the arts. Vincent Van Gogh, Picasso and dozens of other artist could have been scientist instead of artist. How sad that would have been.

While I don’t know that I could keep my dead husbands bloody clothes around for any amount of time, I respect that the wife of that wonderful man has her own way of doing things. After reading all of these comments I think she is probably a pretty amazing person.

i think that she’s done a wonderful job of preserving John’s memory – - and yes, what she does with the objects of what was the most tragic event of her life – it’s completely up to her. I won’t judge – they must have been soulmates……i haven’t heard tell of any Yoko beaus/husbands around.

hmmm, just wondering if Ms. Ono’s “art project” will spawn the need for shadow box kits at the local WalMart. There must be lots of murder victim families that would desire a more sophisticated type of framing than the paper bag look for a deceased loved-ones’ bloodied clothing.

your family may not believe that being an artist is a way to help people, or that an artist isn’t a person who “actually does something positive for the society, something that makes a different and something that makes things happen an honest way of life and making a living”

but plenty of people (including the medical community) believe that art (and producing it) can have therapeutic benefits. seriously, google “art therapy” and see what you find out.

haha ha..my kid wants to become a REAL scientist, someone who actually does something positive for the society, something that makes a different and something that makes things happen an honest way of life and making a living…if she tries her hand on ART it is going to be for fun and her own experience as we don’t believe in being an artist is a way to help people in our family…NOW 1..2…3.. you all can start to attack me ,,,as someone mentioned everyone is entitled to their own opinion..
btw her son if it was not because of his father no one would care about his songs or his talent if he actually has any…have a good one.!
