I'm not sure that's what Nietzsche meant about the will to power, but I agree about the rest of what you said.


Nietzsche was heavily influenced by Schopenhauer and Schopenhauer was a huge advocate of the arts (the first actually). Although "Will" is a very complex and never-ending discussion.



Nietzsche is indeed a whole 'nother discussion.
When I read what you wrote, I actually thought of his concept of the Overman.


Indeed. Nietzsche is very different from Schopenhauer although naturally they have things in common. The Overman theory can also be related to an artist but so can so many other things that involves determination, courage, and basically being ones own God. Creativity is the focal point of being an Overman; and an artist has the will-to-power to merely give birth to reality.

The Scream is by Edvard Munch, not Van Gogh. I don't know why its so famous, nothing special in my view.

Hmm... I've always thought it was a Van Gogh. I checked it out again and it is what you said it was. I think it's very expressive in terms of colour and emotion.


Yeah... Yeah... I heard.... It's a Munch.

I thought it was a Van Gogh too for like 10 years. We lived a lie, Nimrod.

He posted some Turner that Milan had already post too. I blame the weed. It's a good excuse.
