The Big Debate – Is Digital Art ‘Real’ Art?

While digital art is blooming across the world, critical reviews are increasing as well. Many artistic people argue against the reliability of digital fine art as real art. To support their stance, they emphasize the unlimited replication of virtual art. Additionally, they argue that it is the equipment that creates everything, and not the artist.

On the other hand, digital artists support their art by stating the core meaning of fine art. Similar to traditional artists, they express their visions, dreams, and illusions. The only difference is the medium of expression. Also, they stress the fact that digital art is itself a talent as it takes time and effort to master it.

The debate goes on, but a great majority of the art community supports the notion of digital art being real art. Since the meaning of art remains ambiguous, no one is sure of what the conclusion of the question ‘Is digital art ‘real art’ will be. However, digital art poses a variety of advantages.
