Art Discussion Question Some of the art media we have explored in this class produce a unique, one-of-a-kind work: drawing, painting, or crafting. Some other media produce works that can be replicated many times, such as printmaking, film, or photography. Discuss the pros and cons of the unique object versus the multiple. Which would you rather produce? Why?

Please answer in at least five full sentences and answer all the questions.

Answer and Explanation:

A unique work has great value and meaning, since there are no copies of that work, it must be treated with great delicacy to preserve it. In addition, she must be admired with great concentration, paying attention to every detail, because as something finite, this work may not be observed again.

A work that can be replicated, on the other hand, has greater accessibility, is no longer something highly elitist and manages to reach people more democratically. In addition, its visualization can be milder, since the observer is more likely to observe it.

Therefore, I believe that the works that can be replicated are advantageous, mainly because of their ability to reach communities that do not have so much access to art.
