Questions for Sept. 9th Readings

1) In the reading "Design Basics", it discusses the two aspects in art, content and form. Can a piece have just one of these two aspects? Or are they interdependent?

2) Also in the "Design Basics" reading, it addresses hwo the artist thinks about the audience. Does the artist then cater to what he thinks the audience thinks is art, or is he creating it for himself?

3) On page 127, Wysocki has the reader consider what "contains" the page/screen. What does he mean by 'contains'?

In response to question 2, I think that the artist will try to persuade his vision of the art because he is the creator but ease an opening for the audience to input their own vision. For one he wants to make his audience feel very comfortable and follow along with him so I highly doubt if he leaves them to ponder.
