It seems like everyone is talking about Michael Jackson and I just want to add my two cents. I would like to take this opportunity to express my thoughts about the performing artist and the similarity to visual artists.
There are many similarities between the performing and visual artists. I have read several times that Michael Jackson was a perfectionist. I have also read that he was tortured and that he was or appeared to be different or strange. This may sound familiar to many of us who know the historical backgrounds of some of the great visual artists.
One visual artists that comes to mind when I think about Jackson’s life is Vincent Van Gogh. A great deal has been written about the unconventional and brilliant master artists. I am sure there are many more visual artists I could compare Jackson to but I am haunted by the similarities of the lives of both of these artists.
One thing for certain that can be said about both of these artists is that they both seemed to seek salvation through their art.
