Conceptual art

25. Successful art changes our understanding of the conventions by altering our perceptions.

Sometimes art can be so complex you find yourself starring at it trying to figure out whats going on. In my opinion, I believe that is successful art. Successful art makes you think about things or even see things in a way that you never have. A simple example would be to turn take a photograph upside down. This action would make a viewer wonder why an artist would do such a thing. I think thats what this sentence is explaining. Art does not have to be a perfect painting or photograph, it can be successful by simply making the viewer think about the piece and changing the perception.
