Реакция художников на появление первых фотоаппаратов была неоднозначной.

**Некоторые художники приветствовали фотографию как новый инструмент для творчества.** Они видели в ней возможность запечатлеть реальность с беспрецедентной точностью и детализацией. Фотография позволила художникам изучать и изображать мир с новых ракурсов и точек зрения.

**Другие художники были более скептически настроены.** Они опасались, что фотография заменит традиционную живопись и другие формы искусства. Они утверждали, что фотография лишена творческого элемента и не может передать всю глубину и выразительность человеческого опыта.

**Некоторые художники использовали фотографию как вспомогательный инструмент.** Они делали фотографии своих моделей и пейзажей, а затем использовали их в качестве основы для своих картин. Это позволяло им добиться большей точности и реализма в своих работах.

**Появление фотографии также оказало влияние на стили и направления в искусстве.** Например, импрессионисты и постимпрессионисты использовали фотографию для изучения эффектов света и движения. Сюрреалисты использовали фотографию для создания сюрреалистических образов и коллажей.

В целом, появление фотографии оказало значительное влияние на мир искусства. Оно привело к появлению новых художественных стилей и направлений, а также изменило отношение художников к реализму и творчеству.

**Некоторые известные художники, которые реагировали на появление фотографии:**

* **Эдгар Дега** использовал фотографию для изучения движения и композиции в своих картинах.
* **Поль Сезанн** использовал фотографию для изучения структуры и формы в своих пейзажах.
* **Винсент Ван Гог** использовал фотографию для изучения эффектов света и цвета в своих картинах.
* **Пабло Пикассо** использовал фотографию для создания коллажей и изучения новых художественных форм.
* **Сальвадор Дали** использовал фотографию для создания сюрреалистических образов и иллюзий.

Yes, there were negative reactions of artists to the advent of cameras.

Some artists feared that photography would replace traditional painting and other art forms. They argued that photography lacked the creative element and could not convey the full depth and expressiveness of human experience.

For example, the French painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Engr said: "Photography is the enemy of art. It destroys taste and makes it impossible to paint."

English artist John Constable said: "Photography is a mechanical process which cannot replace the work of the artist. The artist must interpret nature, not merely copy it."

Some artists also felt that photography threatened their livelihood. Before the advent of photography, many artists made a living from portrait painting. However, with the advent of photography, the demand for portraits dropped dramatically as people could now get cheaper and more accurate photographs.

The negative reactions of artists to the advent of cameras were understandable. Photography was a new and revolutionary invention that challenged traditional notions of art and creativity. Over time, however, artists learnt to use photography as a tool to enhance their creativity.

Today, photography is an integral part of the art world. It is used by artists for a variety of purposes, from documentation to creating works of art.

Something reminds you a lot, doesn't it? Deja vu? - No, it's just that people's reaction to anything new is always the same, whether it was 10,000 years ago or now. But, as before, as always, humanity is divided into two groups: some see opportunities, others see threats.

"For every person who sees a problem, there is another person who sees an opportunity." Ralph Waldo Emerson.
"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or the present are sure to miss the future." John F. Kennedy.

Innovations are usually resisted and resented most of all by artisans.

Making ends meet: global showbiz stars call for curbing neural networks


Global stars are calling for a halt to the use of artificial intelligence in music. More than 200 music stars have signed an open letter to this effect to the Artists Rights Alliance organisation.

"Musicians are already struggling to make ends meet in the streaming world, and now they have the added burden of trying to compete with the flood of AI-generated noise. The unethical use of generative artificial intelligence to replace human performers will devalue the entire music ecosystem - for artists and fans alike," said ARA Executive Director Jen Jacobsen.

Opinions differ, the landfill is growing.)))))))

Before it was physically impossible to flood the painting market with rubbish, now it is physically impossible to get something worthwhile out of the rubbish. Much less sell it.

Before it was physically impossible (very expensive) to rivet thousands of unnecessary photos, now it is physically impossible to create a photo that anyone needs. Everyone's eyes have been washed out for a long time.

It used to be physically impossible to flood the music market with slag, now it is physically impossible to get out of the slag with some bright work.


 
In the past, fakes, copies and reproductions of original works of art were expensive, and therefore of high quality and few in number; now they are being produced for free.

The dump will continue to grow, swallowing up business, culture, minds and talent.
 
I should add that all known modern works of music, art or film genre were composed, written or directed by recognised classics, born in or after the era of cultural prosperity of society, before the emergence of mass-produced consumer goods and even more so, neural networks. I have not conducted such a study, but something suggests that the living classics of music or painting come from the middle of the 20th century - Hans Zimmer, composer (born 1957), Alexander Shilov, painter (born 1943) and many others. What does this tell us? They were formed in other cultural, informational and market conditions. And what geniuses will the era of AI, neural networks and VR helmets produce?

While geniuses will likely continue to be born because it's a matter of genetics, but under what conditions will they need to showcase their talent? Trying to stand out from the AI?
 
Again, haven't done such a study, but a theory has emerged as to why such strange aberrations in painting - cubism, abstractionism, surrealism and avant-garde - emerged in the early 20th century. Doesn't it seem like a desperate attempt by artists to survive in a market for a fine art genre hijacked by "ultra-realistic" photography? They realised at one point that they would not surpass photography in realism, and started trying to create something with deep meaning, but without realism. Something that was inaccessible to capture in the frame. Forced out of realism and wanting to survive in the marketplace, they were forced to seek and find strange new niches. But things are worse for them now. Much worse.

This gemini has a strange reasoning. Quote:

"Gemini Pro*.
Artists' reactions to the advent of the first cameras were mixed.

**Some artists welcomed photography as a new tool for creativity.** They saw it as an opportunity to capture reality with unprecedented accuracy and detail. Photography allowed artists to explore and depict the world from new angles and perspectives..."
-----‐‐--‐‐----------------------------------

So, those "artists" who happily embraced photography simply became photographers. Jemini's logic is limp so far. )))
 
That is, a famous portrait painter learns about the emergence of photography and exclaims "how great it is! At last I can study and portray my clients from new angles! And most importantly, much more realistically! I'm going to become a photographer. I have to send someone to buy a camera."))))))
 
Decided to double-check the theory and looked it up on Wikipedia. It is. Surrealism emerged in 1917, developed in the 20's, and a little earlier colour photography emerged and started to become mass-produced in the same period. Random correlation? At that time, many "non-artists" enthusiastically became photographers. It's dozens of times easier than painting portraits or pictures. As a child, I both painted and went to a photography club, so I know what I'm talking about.
