Thanks for including me on your list (in the article!). Always nice to be in luminous and prestigious company.

[@contemporaryartissue]

The pleasure is all mine; congratulations!

[@tamikothiel]

Dear Julien Delagrange, I am very honored to be included in the list and in the video with so many friends and s/heros, thanks so much! :-)

[@WilhelmLyons]

Absolutely want to see your perspective on art opportunities and career paths for digital artists. By that, howhever, I first and foremost mean people who do digital painting, drawing and editing. Because making installations, I think, is a very different way of expression, even if they are digital and involve animations, VR, generative art, etc. That's like 2 almost completely different worlds

[@contemporaryartissue]

Your absolutely right about the two different realms of digital art. I will do my very best to cover this topic in the foreseeable future. Stay tuned 🙌

[@DavidDoull]

For the past three decades or so digital art has been developing without really needing the approval or permission of the arts establishment, and that has been a good thing. In the past five years or so there has started to be more interest from major galleries. Some artists that I think should have been in this list, Ryoji Ikeda, Brendan Dawes, Andy Thomas and Joshua Davis.

[@DanielLopes-kv4sp]

As Artist we must realize all art is not art. That what appears to be art is often art being used as art- for something else. There is a Kafkaesque distraction with digital and virtual categorized as Art. What comes first the chicken or the egg/ Art or tech? Who defines that? Tech elites, Capitalist, Artist, Historians? Curators? It becomes pointless unless a unified name is given. Then we can see if it’s place lies as art or elsewhere.

[@contemporaryartissue]

Hi Daniel, thank you for sharing your interesting thoughts here, as always. The question is, where is the line when the definition has been rewritten over and over again, formally, historically, conceptually, and canonically. I must say I am very intrigued by the periphery of high-end art, and it is interesting how the center can draw things to the inside-for instance, when Warhol started to paint soup cans, the medium of painting being the center, and the subject, a soup can, in the periphery. However, when it aims to work the other way around, it does strike a note of debate. What if we discuss high-end subject matter in a medium from the periphery of art?

[@DanielLopes-kv4sp]

@@contemporaryartissue Such a discussion involves an art that exist on the other side of the line. Or at least as you say on it’s peripheral. And this then requires a different use medium or may I say vehicle to convey differently ideas “outside the lines” of the historical linage.you speak of. Yes and may I extrapolate further in saying you are correct in identifying the peripheral as a starting point. That the art lessons of learning how to see have changed. But here’s the rub for me Julien. That’s their stuff that’s their world. I work with in the constraints of traditional painting as it relates to problem solving on a 2-dimensional surface. That those constraints challenge each painter to their own conclusions. There is an organic movement that prides itself on the struggle and the success. This is my world why am I suddenly pas-e or irrelevant? Why is this other world seen as historical progress? The Video, digital mediums in your video are wonderful expressions. My feeling is that they have their own categories and points of reference. These need a name with it’s own definition. Easel painting will always be relevant due to it’s constraints. Flat and center to edge. Hey man I got to hit the rack it’s way late here 3:30am. Hope I answered your query. If not at least I got some stuff of my chest. Feel better. Thanks man👍

[@DanielLopes-kv4sp]

@@contemporaryartissue Yes got it was working all day (pastels) yesterday. Got your message and got back to you, though my brain like mush in early morning hours California. Now that I am divested of my insecurities. Again thank you for listening to that. Yes looking from the periphery of art and it’s historical baggage. If I may put it that way. Looking at things from another perspective; that implies a reversal of subject to medium relationships. With emphasis on how we look at things through newer mediums. I can see now how you find that interesting. I will place that in my thoughts. Thank you Julien!

[@KennethOkafor-k5r]

Yes I’m interested in career advice for digital painter like me

[@KeithBrighouse-m4g]

It all leaves me a little cold and Anadol's work is just using a digital trick. Looks grand but is no better than painterly tricks, all surface and no substance.

[@contemporaryartissue]

Hi there, thank you for tuning in again. Yes, it is a bit gimmicky isn't it, the work of Anadol. It is one big visual spectacle. Personally, I prefer the work of John Gerrard, Tishan Hsu, and Charlotte Johannesson

[@traveller225]

Could you tell how does an artist can integrate AI in his work?

[@EminMathers]

Absolutely yes interested 👽🙏🏽

[@nickrodis6862]

[@artvsmachine]

Zeri digital painters.

[@contemporaryartissue]

Yes, the highest-ranked digital artists-read: the ones that do best in the art world institutions-are predominantly working in installation formats. Digital painters struggle very much to enter the art world and I would like to talk about more about this struggle in a future video

[@Noyb.265]

Thououghly unimpressive. Like video installations, Digital "art" is for those who can't sculpt, paint, and/or aren't possessed of any exceptional artistic talent or ability in an original sense. It takes no talent, anyone can do it, Con Art gallerists and museums will fall for it, and, AND you get to call yourself an artist, even though you can't even so much as draw, paint or sculpt.

[@timeenoughforart]

Talent quit being an aspect of art many years ago. Probably about when the first cave paintings appeared. Digital art is as prestigious as graffiti. We should have it in every bathroom. If we are going to spend a majority of our time in a digital reality it seems perfectly "natural" we should have digital art. It is who we have become. No matter how mentally twisted technology makes us we should have a record of our perversions of nature. We must build the digital temples.

[@DanielLopes-kv4sp]

I have no problem with art as meme. I do take issue with meme as art. The problem does not lie in art rather it’s definition. They are making something else and presenting it as art. And yet it’s still art because they are using art in it. -Kafkaesque.

[@DanielLopes-kv4sp]

@@timeenoughforart Ubiquitous media however channeled, posted or dispersed, doesn’t rise to the level of art. Observation however intellectualized is still not art. Content of any kind is still not art. Until there is magic there is no art. Something sublime that exist in conjunction with something banal is a starting point. No matter the medium. It’s about seeing/thinking, retinal/cerebral. All that is useless without talent. The artist needs talent to make the intangible tangible. With out that kind of magic. There is no art. At least in so far as esthetics are concerned.

[@timeenoughforart]

@@DanielLopes-kv4sp So if it ain't pretty it ain't art. Gottcha.
