Perfection.

We as humans are always, in some way or another, chasing perfection (and, sometimes, running away from it). Perfect art is very hard to achieve — arguably even impossible — due to the myriad of elements within each piece, added to the myriad of perspectives from which said piece is regarded.
The concept of perfection itself is one of the pillars around which art criticism is constructed.

Now let's do a little thought experiment. Ask yourself this: what if it existed? The perfect art piece. The perfect video game.
The chances arent high... but in the hypothetical case that such thing would occur, I'd guess it would be very similar to this.

Squeezed, smeared and flicked, dripped and encrusted, blurred, jabbed and stippled, oleaginously liquid, scraped back to the dry canvas – sometimes all in one work – the gestural effects are always openly declared. George R. R. Martin and Hidetaka Miyazaki are designers of excess. They take the soulsborne genre, morph, distort and cannibalise its elements, push it to the limits, politicise it, but always create a beautiful game. 10/10

By the 1950s, the Abstract Expressionists had firmly taken over the imagination of the art world. Everywhere, artists were striving to connect with the primeval self, the unconscious mind, and the hidden imagery of the subconscious. In the midst of this fervor emerged a trend toward calmness, born partially from a growing interest among many artists in Eastern philosophies like Taoism and Zen Buddhism. One of the most profound movements to grow out of this time was a game named Grand Theft Auto San Andreas.

This work embraces color, while placing equal power on line. It embraces simplicity while simultaneously communicating vastness, complexity and a sense of interwoven interdependence.

This games furious energy envelops the viewer and seems to burst off the canvas. There is a shocking vitality to it, aggression that transfers emotion and fury into space. At a time when many game company's considered Abstraction to have played itself out, Rockstar injected a powerful new life force into the style.

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas continues to open new doors to us as we try to comprehend the endless complexities our evolving society presents us with. Just a Classic of video game. 10/10

Fallout 2 cannot be considered much as an object of physical experience compared to its role as an instrument of knowledge. Particularly, Fallout 2 seems to possess the power to express and represent reality, although it is argued that its only through appreciating the properties of its expression an representation that we begin the recognize its meaning. 10/10

The lines build up in meshes and weaves, steady, patient and strikingly judicious. It's as if he daren't rush it – this is an etching after all, where one false mark can lead to endless problems. But going through the game, you see that Feargus Urquhart's graphic gifts are so subtle he is able to get over the finest variations of atmosphere, tone and light just through infinitely small variations in the direction of the crosshatchings. It's like a slight change of breeze, shifting the mood and the weather. 10/10

Conceptual art can stretch the senses by combining overt intellectual content with assertive visual forms. This effective presentation concentrates on examples by three widely respected Long Island artists.

The pieces by Chris Coffin annex the universal fascination with weather and use its documentation as a basis for ideas that consider sequence, time and memory. One particularly successful project groups small black charts bearing multiple brilliantly colored lines that track meteorological details of storms in 1969 and 1998. Thoroughly compelling, these graphic components have an abstract resonance that interacts with the mental engagement in statistical interpretation.

Mr. Coffin's fondness for progression and systematization comes across nicely, too, in his sequential alignment of handsomely shaped and etched glass containers, each half-filled with Atlantic Ocean water and inscribed with the name of a hurricane that occurred in the last 30 years. Turbulence may be part of the content, but the harmonious control is admirably soothing. The artist's two videos recording the surf are also notable additions, especially because of the mesmerizing way they transform reality into sequences of generalized rhythms.

Barbara Roux likes to dramatize forest components in her installation pieces, which frequently activate the space beyond their specific physical dimensions. The example here, based on branches protruding from the gallery walls, incorporates strong shadow images that raise thoughts about illusions and hints rather gently at Ms. Roux's interest in the friction between human concerns and the unspoiled wilderness. She makes her point somewhat more strongly in a photograph of an elaborately framed mirror lying on a forest floor to capture the unseen sky and treetops.

Most visitors think first of magic and fantasy when they discover the busy color and crowded dynamics of Seung Lee's installation ''Modern Forest.'' Beyond the scores of suspended bugs wrapped in waxlike teardrops, however, vividly painted old circuit boards and found-object constructions deliver a message about waste. They also point to a contrast between technology's precision and art's improvisation.
