Strengths and weakness of expressive theory of art.

In the Expressive Theory of Art, the individual is placed at the center of art, and art is seen as the means to transmit individual feelings and emotions, and it should be able to communicate what the artist intends to express

Explanation:

Some weaknesses of this theory have been pointed out, like the fact that it works well for Abstract Expressionism, but not as well for other kinds of art, and that it restricts artists to expression of feeling and emotion, as works of art that don´t convey any emotion are not considered "art". And also, things that aren't called art are considered art by Expression theorists because it does express emotion.

But some of these aspects can also be seen as strengths, particularly in its commitment to the communication of the feelings and emotions of the artist to the viewers or audience, and that good art depends on how successful this communication is, so that the viewer/audience is affected by the same emotion or feeling. Also, it raises important questions about art, such as Why is art created? What are the motivations to make art? Why do we care about art and why does art move us?
