For this project I interviewed Miss Brown, my mom, and some kid that lives across the street. The first question I had for them was how do they think that art has changed over time. Surprisingly they each had not quite the same but similar views about this. They all pretty much think that art has gotten more and more advanced to match the way things around are changing. For example, my mom said that the sculptures downtown would not have fit in about one hundred years ago but now everything is more modern and it seems to work just fine. The other two people more or less said that art used to be more about painting and drawing things and now its mostly about getting hidden meaning from the art. I felt like these were some pretty interesting questions and they made me think.
Another question that got interesting answers was what do you look for in art these days? The kid across the street had an intriguing idea. He said that he wants it to look "awesome" but at the same time he wants other people to think it looks good not just him. I felt like that was a pretty interesting answer. I would have guessed him to say something like, " If I like it, it works." But no, he did not say that. In fact he was quite considerate of how things should look around our city so he was a good choice to pick for this interview.
