Why are art critiques important? what benefit can we gain from them?

Art criticism is not simply a comment, a review or an essay written by someone who is a specialist in an artistic work. Criticism privileges the artist in question when compared to other authors within their art context.

Explanation:

Criticism in art must be understood as a matter of communication. In the criticism several aspects take part: sender (the specialist person), content (message itself of the criticism), channel (press, television, etc., where the criticism is emitted), receiver (the people who are going to read the criticism) and effect (reaction to criticism).

The critical art specialist can be considered an artist, since he interprets the work of art in his own way and through criticism he elaborates another work. In addition, it serves as a communicator of the work of art message for the entire community. Criticism should be taken as a driving and promotional factor for works of art.
