300+ Ways to Make Female Artists Look Like Idiots
True, women are often underestimated, in the past + art world. It’s great attention is now being paid to them, but what irritates me is that really good art is ignored, whilst work of the angry women is being thrust into the spotlight. Is this down to the artist or the one organising the exhibition?

We live in a dystopian society. Patriarchy has been at its peak for centuries. But women have always been very intelligent. Every woman possesses many qualities: mother, wife, flower, sensuality. We have ample evidence of talented women who have left indelible marks on humanity, on the development of art, society, and progress. I believe there are 3,000 more reasons why female artists are impressive, and they have only been conditioned by society and corrupt officials and institutions.
Nowadays, both art and artists have no value. My sister is also an artist, but no one is willing to buy her art, and gradually her paintings are falling into disrepute, which is why she is quite generous and gifts her paintings to others for free. I stopped her on this, and she said that it is better to give them as a gift than to keep them at home and have them go to waste.
If a painting is well executed, or if a piece of art is well executed, then of course it is not rubbish and will not fall into disrepair. The problem with buying art is that you have to sell yourself as well as your art, and you have to get out there rather than sit at home waiting to be discovered – that’s not how it works. So giving some of it away for free can, of course, be a way to build a reputation, but in that case you haven’t paid for your materials.
I don’t agree with you that art and artists are worthless and that there’s no money to be made from them; on the contrary. When it comes to getting rich, art ranks fourth! So there is certainly a lot of money in the art world. The question is how you can be part of that, and for that you’ll probably need to be discovered by someone influential.
You may be right, but the problem is that my sister is not very social and does not go out of the house much. It was very difficult for her to go to university just to study art because both the house and the children were disturbed. Before going to university, she would do all the housework and after coming back from university, she would finish the rest of her work and sit down to teach the children. All her time would be spent with the children. After that, only the time left for art was to sleep at night, which she would give to her art instead of sleeping. This is the reason why she does not have any time to go anywhere else and contact anyone, due to which her art is being wasted.
This is exactly what most artists struggle with, they are introverts or focused on their work if not obsessed and they do not like to promote themselves. That is why there art promoters. It is a bit pity of her study.
She could show them on Steemit on Art & Artists @hive-120695. You never know.
Yes I know but her steemit account is not working
it all seems so eery.
If you ask me 'eery' is the right word!
A guy once told me, "What I like about you is that you're intelligent for a woman." I was a little offended by the generalization, but to be honest, I've never had an intelligent conversation with a female colleague.
I have and I cannot say all men are that intelligent. Many are not even able to talk smoothly or without saying 'uuhh' every few minutes to gather their thouhts, but I do admit that I am rarely interested in what keeps the average bored woman's mind busy.
My son would also say that it is better to have a good conversation with a woman than a man. Of course, this also depends on the topics. I am totally not interested in talks about what to feed hubby next, raising children, doing the groceries, the laundry and how to kill time till he arrives home to command around.
But .. I rather go fishing with a guy who doesn't talk instead of listening to his endless complains about the boss and wife not able to understand him and listen to the low budget jokes (of a drunk).
Let's say it is hard to find the right company, with the same interests, I do prefer the shy man and the introverts. Introverts think.
Haha. Always thinking outside the box. This could be a story. We could pluck a pelican or leave a carcass in the basement.
I go for the carcass
You're right, it probably all depends on the circles we interact in, and also common interests and affinities.
Of course I agree that many silences are better than empty conversations.
It is special to be with people you can be silent with without feeling uncomfortable.
En un feed lleno de ruido, el arte siempre es un respiro necesario.
