Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

The Little Death - Eduardo Galeano

Love does not move us to laughter at the deepest point in its journey, the pinnacle of its flight: at its deepest and highest, it wrenches from us cries and moans, expressions of pain, how-ever jubilant, which when you think about it is not strange at all because birth is a painful joy.

A little death is what the French call the climax of the embrace, which joins us as it breaks us apart and finds us as it loses us, is our beginning as it is our end.
A little death they call it, but it must be great, tremendous, to give birth to us as it kills us.

Pequeña muerte - Eduardo Galeano

No nos da risa el amor cuando llega a lo más hondo de su
viaje,a lo más alto de su vuelo: en lo más hondo, en lo más alto,
nosarranca gemidos y quejidos, voces de dolor, aunque sea
jubilosodolor, lo que pensándolo bien nada tiene de raro, porque
naceres una alegría que duele.

Pequeña muerte, llaman en Francia a la culminación del abrazo, que rompiéndonos nos junta y perdiéndonos nos encuentra y acabándonos nos empieza.
Pequeña muerte, la llaman; pero grande , muy grande ha de ser, si matándonos nos nace.
