Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
What we seek in art is something other than perfect imitation. How else can one explain, for example, the continued appeal of black and white photography despite the invention of color photography? Even some recent motion pictures have been intentionally filmed in black and white. For example, the 1998 film Celebrity portrays a contemporary subject yet is filmed entirely in black and white. Why the anachronism? The answer is simple: art is not meant to perfectly mimic reality. |
