At the moment i've been seeing so many painters online, whose work recreates random internet images/phrases/online metas They're like large scale inside jokes meticulously hand painted. I think it's super interesting how painting them seems to bring a sense of realness or formality to images that are other wise sort of silly and don't require much though. A lot of them also employ aesthetics of the 'old' internet. They're blurry or pixellated style make them feel so nostalgic, like they're archiving an era of the internet that no longer exists.

6. The Space of Drawing: The Place of Art in Modern Philosophy's Thinking of the Visible, Keith Crome and Ross Clark

'...our argument is this claim that art makes on philosophy, and which amounts to the admission that art is not the indifferent object of philosophical scrutiny (the mode of scrutiny constitutive of the regional discipline of aesthetics). Art is the very condition of philosophy’s possibility, for the enquiring mind, far from being sufficient unto itself, owes its illumination to the divine fire of artistic inspiration.'
