I was thinking about a problem that I had this week with a person. I was looking for a objective term to.
Today I've learned something very interesting in my History of Art class. I'm a Romantic and that person is Barroque. I'll explain it:
- The romantic is passioned, interested in the society problems, someone who feels the reality on a special form, focused and realist.
- The baroque is overdone, overwritten, overacted, pending issues of little relevance and a little superficial. Sounds bad... I know.
These two styles of painting are different. Nobody told that is wrong,although I'm not talking about painting, right?
I think, and it's clear that I love to be the Romantic one because this world is a twist of disasters and the people need somebody that make their lives better.
The progress is in Romantics, not on Baroques.
Romantic: Caspar David Friedrich "Wanderer above the Sea of Fog"
Baroque: Michelangelo Caravaggio "Ruhe auf der Flucht"
I love both styles,but my philosophy is in keeping with the naturalism, expressionism and romanticism.
