Artista plástico

hola soy un artista plastico

Ser un artista plástico está mas allá del mundo ecológico gracias a los artistas de la aplicación de una excelente técnica, existen muchos pintores que aplican las técnicas de maneras excelentes.

Las personas algunas veces se confunden y suelen creer que cualquiera que pinte es artista. Pintar bien es una de las característica que un buen artista plástico debe tener pero no es en definitiva la única característica que lo defina.​

Para hacer un poco más objetivo cuál es el profesional (profesionista) de las artes visuales, cito de la descripción de la carrera de Licenciado en artes visuales de la Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas:

“Así, este profesionista conoce y domina los métodos de las Artes Visuales y como producto de sus vivencias y del análisis del medio que lo rodea, trabaja en la ejecución de su obra ya sea de manera individual, o bien, en forma colectiva participando activamente en la creación plástica contemporánea, y exhibiendo su trabajo en diversos foros.” “Básicamente, su quehacer se orienta hacia la creación, el desarrollo, la preservación y la difusión artística de la realidad sociocultural del país, influyendo directamente en el público receptor de su obra.”

De lo anterior podemos destacar que efectivamente, el artista debe dominar los métodos y materiales de las artes plásticas, sin embargo su quehacer es orientado a influir directamente en el público receptor de su obra.

Los artistas plásticos creamos formas y figuras que simbolizan o recrean nuestro entorno social. El análisis en la creación de paradigmas mediante pintura, escultura, performance, instalación y/o vídeo, ha de empujar a la sociedad a nuevas maneras de percepción.

A diferencia de los enfermos mentales, niños y animales que también pintan bien, los artistas plásticos creamos a voluntad y en conciencia artefactos en pos del arte. A veces se crean obras de arte, otras veces sólo cuadros.

En el quehacer, la conciencia del profesional plástico está por arriba de la pura emoción de recrear bien una obra pictórica. Esta obra, para que sea arte, deberá contener elementos no sólo físicos (una buena factura) sino también espirituales (formas significativas) que permita la unión con el otro y con la sociedad en su conjunto.
