Ever since I was a little girl, I have been fascinated by art. As a young mother on an extremely tight budget I would often visit the second hand stores and garage sales looking for treasures. One day I found a small statue of a gorilla in a corner of one of my neighbor’s yards. It was worn from years of rain and snow, but it was still beautiful. It looked as though it had been carved by hand from an unusual dark wood and was about 18″ tall (45 cm). The eyes were red, but the rest of the face had darkened over time to give it a more natural look. I asked if I could purchase the statue and my neighbor said that if I wanted it, it was mine!

My son was just starting school at this time and I knew that some of his school friends were making projects out of clay. I thought that this would make an interesting project to do with him and gave it to him as we began our clay project. After school that day he came home with something wonderful! He had made several pieces using this statue as inspiration. His teacher wanted to know where he had gotten such an unusual piece because they would like to use it as an example for their students!

I have always loved this story because it shows

It is a fact that in the past few years, modern art has become increasingly less mainstream. While it is still popular in some circles, for example, high society and celebrities, many people are making claims that modern art is “pointless” and a “waste of money”. Some even go as far as to call it ridiculous or even a hoax.

This school of thought seems to have sprouted from people who have never really given modern art a chance. It’s understandable: no one likes being told they’re wrong about something. So when someone tells you that you should appreciate something you don’t, it’s natural to get defensive.

People tend to think that their opinions are correct because they’ve been in their head for so long. The problem with this thinking is two-fold: first, it’s usually not true; secondly, by clinging to your opinions without question, you get stuck in a place where you can’t grow as an individual.

It’s preferable to take a step back and try to understand why someone would hold a belief different from yours. To do that requires empathy, which not everyone has the capacity for. But if we put ourselves in the other person’s shoes, we’ll be able to see their side of things more clearly.*
