For representational arts, I don't mind "straightforward" titles. However, a shift in naming convention in representational arts to include more abstract titles- titles that invoke our emotions rather than representing the aesthetics, may establish some sort of creative bridge between the artist and the viewer.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3606987185748240-6121955723978177899?l=minds-visual-journey.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MindsVisualJourney/~4/NY-DQjp2X_c" height="1" width="1"/>Mystic Paradigmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05970850665169017298noreply@blogger.com0http://minds-visual-journey.blogspot.com/2009/10/arts-without-titles.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606987185748240.post-87793915056431707662009-10-10T04:45:00.005+11:002010-03-11T19:21:25.798+11:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both;
