“Poetic” content and differences between Academic and Impressionist painting - No. 78

DESC: Outlining the basic source of visual beauty in paintings and differentiating it from the ‘literary’ poetry involved in the subject itself. One having to do with the dance, music of the eye - the purely abstract elements - and the other the narrative or story content.
In response to Luisa

QUESTIONS: I feel that one can reach both worlds of the spectrum with the outline and the masses! Academic work kills the spirit of the light (impressionism) but ...too much impressionism kills the form of the academy! The poetic form of realism must be kept! There' has to be a balance between these opposites!
Talk about the ways the academic and the impressionist have of making the poetry, and the common points if any. [paraphrased I think] LUISA
