Art is just one of those things, which helps us to survive on this planet. I simply cannot live without art. Art is to reinvigorate our senses and our mind (both), because there is a kind of a inseparable conection between what we see, hear, feel, smell and what we are thinking about. We are thinking about our impressions, about our observations, and so on... so... Well, we can think without any external stimulus but I think we should enrich our mental life all the time. Not only for some of the "highest" reasons, but also for our simple pleasure.
What do I think about Mark Rothko's works? And what do I feel about them? It depends on the painting. Some colors make me feel good,safe and powerless, brings good associations and some brings bad memories, makes me angry or dissapointed. And than I'm wondering about my feelings, I analize them, and create a new meanings. And this makes me fulfilled... This is the meaning of art for me. In other words - if you want to have a great mental orgasm you simply need art...
