	High culture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		High culture is a term referring to the cultural milieu and culture consumption of a western society's upper class.
		High culture is traditionally the milieu of arts and sciences fostered under the European Renaissance.
		Proponents of high culture see it is a force for compassion, dignity, and discipline in the face of modern selfishness and transience.

	High Art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		High Art (1998) is an independent movie directed by Lisa Cholodenko and starring Ally Sheedy and Radha Mitchell.
		As Syd slowly discovers the darker truths of Lucy's life on the edge, she is forced to confront her own hunger for recognition and the uncertain rewards of public esteem.
		Inflected with an edgy, urban realism, High Art moves beyond the high risk fantasy of Trainspotting and Drugstore Cowboy to offer up a realistic portrait of life on the borders.

	High Art (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Works of high art are deeply related to morality, in the widest sense of the term, and sometimes problematize morality itself.
		High art has a history, in which styles, techniques, genres and the entire orientation of the work of art is changed.
		So, in conclusion, one can say that low art is often characteristic of (though not reducible to) a certain local group, high art is always and by definition relatively universal, limited only by the fact that it is necessary to study the art form before one can fully appreciate it.

	ArtLex's He-Hn page
		Traditionally, high art consists of the meticulous expression in fine materials of refined or noble sentiment, appreciation of the former depending on such things as intelligence, social standing, educated taste, and a willingness to be challenged.
		Low art is the shoddy manufacturing in inferior materials of superficial kitsch, simply catering to popular taste, unreflective acceptance of realism, and a certain "couch potato" mentality.
		Pop Art further weakened the distinction, and artists as various as Jean-Michel Basquiat (American, 1960-1988), Jeff Koons (American, 1955-) and the Guerrilla Girls (American), influenced strongly by the different branches of postmodern thought, have dealt it the further blows.

	High Art . Nashville Scene . 08-24-98
		One of the reasons it's hard to make a good movie about art and artists is that audiences resent being told that the fictional art is good and the fictional artist is talented.
		High Art, a slow, serious, and ultimately rewarding film due in Nashville theaters in coming weeks, not only manages to say something interesting about art but also finesses the question of quality in a disarming way.
		That High Art presents this dilemma in a solid, character-driven movie indicates that Lisa Cholodenko is herself an artist to watch.

	High Art's Affair With Popular Culture - Jason Edward Kaufman
		As the last decade of the century begins, we lovers of art have the singular opportunity to examine in one exhibition such affirmed, masterpieces as a pair of bronze ale cans, a porcelain urinal, a stainless-steel balloon bunny, and an enlarged frame from a comic book.
		We all know such things are the stuff of art in the modern age, and secretly, many of us have lamented it.
		High and Low: Modern Art and Popular Culture engages a subject--the relationship between "high" art and "low" culture--so broad and complex that it would seem to defy comprehensive treatment in an exhibition.

	TheMovieBoy Review: High Art (1998)
		"High Art," is such an effective motion picture because it is never suger-coated or idealized, but instead an honest and convincing portrait of a handful of unhappy people whose lives are going nowhere, while Syd's luck begins to rise.
		As accurate as almost every detail is in, "High Art," I wish the relationship had been more tightly written involving Syd and James, who, played by Gabriel Mann, is left with a throwaway role.
		"High Art," which won the screenwriting award at the 1998 Sundance Film Festival, marks the superior feature film debut of Cholodenko, as well as Sheedy's strongest, and best, role to date.

	David Carrier: High Art
		High Art relates the philosophical issues posed by Baudelaire's art writing to the theory and practice of modernist and postmodernist painting.
		Moving from the grand tradition of Delacroix to the images of modern life made by Constantin Guys, this movement from "high" to "low," from the unified world of correspondances to the fragmented images of contemporary city life, motivates Baudelaire's equivalent to the post-1968 turn away from formalist art criticism.
		His previous titles published by Penn State Press are Principles of Art History Writing (1991), Poussin's Paintings: A Study in Art-Historical Methodology (1993), and The Aesthete in the City: The Philosophy and Practice of American Abstract Painting in the 1980s (1994).

	Catherine Gunther Kodat: High Art in Low Times
		This propaganda, in order to be successful, demands the cooperation of writers, teachers, and artists not as paid propagandists or state-censored time servers but as “free” intellectuals capable of policing their own jurisdictions and of enforcing acceptable standards of responsibility within the various intellectual professions.
		A system like this presupposes two things: a high degree of professional consciousness among intellectuals, and general economic affluence which frees the patrons of intellectual life from the need to account for the money they spend on culture.
		He describes the disagreement between American and Soviet notions of ballet art as one pitting “modernism” against “realism,” but these terms are notoriously vague and, as he himself notes, there is nothing realistic about the dancing swans, fairies, sylphs, and bewitched princesses of the 19th-century classics beloved by the Soviets.

		To explain the special strength of ``High Art,'' it is necessary to begin with the people who live in the apartment above Syd and James.
		There's a shifting population in the upstairs flat, since drugs are involved, but the permanent inhabitants are Lucy, who was a famous photographer 10 years ago; Greta, who once starred in Fassbinder films; and Arnie, an unfocused layabout who's along for the ride, and the heroin.
		The movie knows how career ambition and office politics can work together to motivate Syd: She wants Lucy to get the job because she's falling for Lucy, but also because she knows Lucy is her ticket to a promotion at the magazine.

	Review: High Art (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		I suppose High Art is as good a name as any for this pretentious melodrama, an often- diverting but ultimately pointless attempt to wed intellectual twaddle with a soap-opera-ish lesbian romance.
		High Art introduces us to Syd (Radha Mitchell), a hard-working twenty-something woman who has a menial position at a high-end photography magazine and whose home life includes a lifeless, routine relationship with an unsupportive cad named James.
		Despite solid performances in the two major roles, High Art's script is too talky and uneven to make this really worthwhile, unless, of course, you're a fan of arty soap operas.

	The “High Art” of Nicolas Poussin by Karen Wilkin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		ardly anyone dares use the term “High Art” these days—not without high irony— but it’s difficult to know how else to categorize works that present elevated and learned themes with great formal rigor and scrupulous evocation of the antique.
		[1] No one could emerge from the show unconvinced that Poussin belongs among the giants of the High Baroque, a worthy colleague of his contemporaries Velázquez, Rubens, and Rembrandt, yet, at the same time, we were reminded that he was also a contemporary of the formidable Cardinal Richelieu.
		art of the present-day difficulty with Poussin has to do, I think, not with the intrinsic character of his work but with his legacy.

		If games are art, Swain, Fullerton and others say they deserve the same intellectual scrutiny as music, theater or dance."Game reviews today focus on the features and the fun factor," Fullerton said.
