The body's arty molecule, dopamine, is triggered by the mere anticipation of something novel. Many artworks have wrecked on the shoals of neuroscience, but our neurons need images for their living.
Reminiscence is not precision and truth in art is not skill and life-like accuracy. Inaccessible worlds and forgotten histories are about paintings that makes them memorable. Borderline art and crazy paintings must be more worth remembering than a perfect photography of Alois Alzheimer.

However art helps to retard the ageing process because brainy artworks have more grey matter.
Unlike sleep-dependent consolidation, wake consolidation strengthened a context-independent representation of objects and was independent of hippocampal function.
The past exists only in our neuronal memory. Good pictures understand that artists careers begin as projects with uncertain futures. Shallow art cause amnesia and other things I can't remember.
