  • He made the same mistake Plato did thousands of years ago...in fact Plato contrasted with Aristotle when he wanted to get rid of art because it didn't resemble the forms of life including the form of a human. The forms are right here Plato...that art piece does resemble a human being and you know it!

  • I think his opinion is trifling , incongruent or simply a naive way of viewing things, if you'd ask me art wouldn't be as interesting, as enthralling or as significant if what we were trying to build were life models which were 100% alike; regarding those bodies which are a bit too toned he may have a point.. However, art should make us inquire, imagine things in a different way, travel into a different perspective and explore unusual patterns of thinking which our brains are unaccustomed to.

  • Again, the word unrealistic is misused here. These images may not be the average or the norm but to say they are unrealistic is misleading.

  • hey do you know where can i watch the rest of this video... or buy the dvd!!!
