[IBC] Pacific Rim Bonsai Collection Call to Artists
----- Original Message -----
From: "Jim Lewis" Subject: [IBC] Pacific Rim Bonsai Collection Call to Artists Enter if you wish, but, like a daiza isn't ART, neither is this! Jim, THAT'S gonna get you some emails!! :) Dale Well, not yet, but as Andy noted to me -- offlist -- the extent to which bonsai is an art is . . . so, at least partially, because the tree/pot/stand/etc... harmonize for a cohesive (single) image. This business of working to make one of those elements conspicuous only occurs at the expense of the overall display. . .. . In other words, making any part of the composition conspicuous makes, by definition, the "composition" fall apart and become a ridiculous mess. If Pac. Rim want to highlight stand or pot art, they need to do so outside of the realm of bonsai. Jim Lewis - - Tallahassee, FL - Only where people have learned to appreciate and cherish the landscape and its living cover will they treat it with the care and respect it should have - Paul Bigelow Sears. ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Ken Rutledge++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?
