What makes a Master?

What makes a Master?

Ajay Rajgarhia

Sorry to play devils advocate, but:

Why are labels so important. Does one become better (or does ones work become more valuable) if one is called a 'master'.

Isn't creating art a journey more than a destination.

The appreciation of art is subjective - what is great for one is ordinary for the other. In this case, who decides who is a master and who isn't. How do we remove biases.

Is it a democratic process, or do we take an experts word.

Also, the basis for all judgments is relative, so if an existing artist produces great work, do the older masters become lessor masters.

Or does the list keep getting longer without any deletions. If so, does this not diminish the 'master' tag somewhat.

Sorry, i know there are more questions than answers here.
