If the whole of /ic/ anons' consciousness was wrapped into a single superbeing, would they be a good art critic? That is the question I ask myself, friends.

Lol, define "relevant". Art's place in society hasn't changed substnatially for 150 years and before then it was even less relevant than it is now.

What a surprise.

But in more serious note, there should be only one kind of critique: from artist to artist.

>"ITS NOT LIKE YOU SAY PYW UR JUST JEALOUS STOP CRABBING THATS NOT CRITIQUE THEY EARN MORE MONEY THAN YOU CAN ONLY CRITIQUE IF YOUR BETTER THAN THEM AND YOUR WORK IS SHIT BECAUSE IM MAD AT YOU HOW EVEN DARE YOU SAY ANYTHING ABOUT MY WORK HAHA TOLD YOU UR JUS JELLY HAHA I SEE NO MISTAKE DONATE TO HIS PATREON NO IM NOT SAMEFAGGING"
Critics are a necessary evil because if there is no one to shit on you, you'll never get your head out of your ass.
Just look at this shithole of a board and what it has become by attacking everyone who "crabs" on anyone.
It's like those youtube celebrities who clearly lie and make mistake and label everyone who calls them out on it a "hater"

Also some people deserve to be professionally shit on.

But it's the truth.
I only care about critique if the person doing the critique has artistic skills.
Otherwise, his opinion has no value.

What makes anyone influential? People pay attention to what they have to say. Their opinions affect to varying degrees who art galleries choose to exhibit, how much the works of different artists and different types of art sell for, the opinions other art critics, journalists and artists tend to have, etc. That would be in contrast to the many art critics who aren't influential, whose opinions consequently have little to no effect on the art world whatsoever.

You've described what it means to be influential, but didn't answer why these particular critics are influential.

Is it all about who you know, or do they have unique talents or insights, or what?

And thank!

Holy shit guys I'm not a cultural historian, I have no idea what particular causal chain of events led each individual one of them to become influential.
