今天有个朋友问了我这个问题，下面是我的回答，写得比较文，见谅～ 不知大家是否同意我的看法
Well, to your question that whether one's artistic achievement has
something to do with his sexual
inclination, my answer is yes, highly probable. This is not an arbitrary
statement. Behind
this is this logic.
Let me start with the nature of art. By nature, art is creativeness. To
create is to rebel and to subvert. For instance, Renaissance art is an
expression of rebellion
against the Dark Age while modernism stands firmly opposite to modernity
and that banal
lifestyle brought about by industrial revolution.
To create amazing artist works, one must challenge the current tradition,
the things transparent and taken for granted. On the contrary, only those
fraught with
rebellion spirit may become artists.
So, this begs another question that how one may develop one's rebellion
spirit, or to put it another way, what may be the source of such spirit.
Among many possible
answers, one's sense of marginalization is the one for sure.
Being gay, one is marginalized. On the one hand, he will suffer from the
position. On the other, this has put him in a unique and advantageous
perspective from which he
sees the world around (the center, the mainstream). This unique perspective
(being an
outsider) will develop one's taste and aesthetics different from the
mainstream. If it is
combined with excellent artistic skills, one can be certain that a piece of
art will be
produced. So, being gay, we can have something to celebrate for.
Being gay, one challenges the way most people believe "normal" of using one'
s body. This in turn will develop one's rebellion spirit. Being gay, one is
more likely
to be creative and to rebel in one way or another.This is what we call body
politics which was
developed originally by Foucault. . It's a long story that I'm making very
short.
I've spent a great deal of time writing the above in the belief that you
will appreciate and you are the one I can make dialogue with.
Being gay means a lifestyle, a taste of beauty and a perspective, whether
this preference is inborn or nurtured. | a***n
