WOW – WORDS OF WISDOM – Y24 #2

The purpose of life is creating art. At least Friedrich Nitzsche thinks so:

“Art is the supreme task and the truly metaphysical activity in this life.”

According to Nitzsche the purpose of life is to create art— and the only thing worth doing. We can create art via music, through drawings, through pictures, through writing and poetry. It is our first duty in life – to create more art.

With that in mind here comes my attempt at Art Brut (Raw Art) inspired by Anton Masle’s painting Woman in the Chair.

If you know a quote, wise or not, maybe you would like to share with other visitors to this blog and accompany it with a photo that you took. It does not need to be a photo of your own drawing. 😉

Whatever you do, just have fun.

  1. I’m not a fan of Nietzsche but I have to admit I’m also no scholar of Nietzsche. My lack of sympathy for his views might have to do more with his reception and the way that nazi ideologists have used and abused his actual views. His views on art might rehabilitate him in my eyes, to an extent.

    1. Thank you for sharing your view, Elke. I am no scholar of Nietzsche either. I only read one books of his once.
