Task 1:

Dear Magdalena,
Yesterday I was in an art exhibition with my family. There we saw a painting that really fascinated me. The name of the picture is “The Problem we all live with”. In the center of the picture you can see a young black girl, who wears a white dress and white shoes. In front of her there walk two policemen, which call Deputy US Marshall and behind her there walk two more policemen. In the background of this painting you can see a wall with tomato spatter on it.
I think that the artist wants to express that a lot of people of another culture and who have another skin colour or when people just live differently to us have a very difficult life, because they can´t integrate very well. In every part of the world there are racists who treat such people very horrible. So this picture shows me that a foreigner needs a lot of protection.
I am totally against racists, because I think that everybody should accept these people how they are, it´s horrible to see how these racists treat them.
I thought about this picture when I went home yesterday morning and asked me the question what the artist really wanted to express with.
What do you think about when you hear such things ?
I hope you have a good time in England !
Please write back ...
Yours Marina

Task 2:

In my opinion this photo taken from the internet isn`t art, because I think that everybody can take a photo in this way. Although it might be that this photo is art for many people, for me this photo hasn´t any expression and I don´t know what the picture will show us. Art is when you create something and not just only takes a photo.
When someone creates a picture you can see how it is made and what the artist want to express. You see how he feels and thinks in this picture.
Apart from this, I think it´s a beautiful photo, but in my opinion it would be better for a postcard or such things, but not for an exhibition.
By the way everybody has another opinion about what art is or is not so there will always be a discussion about this.
