144-Who gives society something of lasting value, critics or artists?
"It is the artist, not the critic,* who gives society something of lasting value."
*a person who evaluates works of art, such as novels, films, music, paintings, etc.
是艺术家而不是批评家，给了社会一些永久的价值。
*批评家指经常评价艺术作品，例如小说、电影、音乐、绘画等的人。
Disagree

说者的有一定的道理，确实艺术品是艺术家创造的，艺术品本身的价值是永恒价值的前提，但是没有批评家的不断争论，就不发现艺术品的永久价值。因此，艺术品的永久价值是艺术家和评论家共同创造的。

1、没有艺术家的丰富情感，就没有大量的艺术作品，。凝固的感情concretionary emotion。这是艺术品的价值之一。没有艺术作品，评论家就没有评论的对象：
2、有时候艺术也是一种批判，是一种个人对社会现象的批判表达方式。
3、批评家正式在艺术家个人作品表达基础上进行再评论，发掘深层意思，批评家批评的过程，也是一种创造的过程，因为，对艺术的评价包含了个人的感情与文化，这是得批评家在评论艺术的时候加入了自己的感情。他们的批评成了这个永久价值的一部分。最终实现作品的永久价值，在艺术品问世以后，可能会一下子闻名天下，但很多巨作都是沉默了很久，最后在评论家的争论中实现了其真正的价值。
4、可能在他们的评论中会暂时淹没一些伟大的作品，让很久以后才被发掘出来，但是如果没有评论家，人们可能错过的杰作就会更多更多。正是在争论中实现了艺术品的价值，并引起了大众的注意。
5、真正的有永久价值的艺术品最终是会被发现的，常言道：真金不怕火炼。但是没有艺术家的创造，没有评论家的争论，我们的社会就永远不会有永久的价值来珍藏。

The speaker asserts that the one who gives society the lasting value of art is artist, but not critic. This assertion seems logical because all artworks come from artists. However, the realistic cases tell me that, both the artist and the critic contribute vital functions to the lasting values of those masterpieces. At first, the artists create great works, however, maybe nobody noticed it for a long-term. Only if more and more critics began to debate on it, its value could keep increasing.

No one can deny the fact that, the masterpieces’ lasting values based on the artists’ larruping emotions and feelings. Meanwhile, if such features were absence, critics would have lost their objects to comment. In other words, not only those critics but also the society would have missed numerous great creative works like “the Eroica Symphony”英雄交响曲“Mona Lisa” , “Les Miserables”悲惨世界，and so forth. What a terrible loss for the realm of human spirit? In a sense, therefore, just those notable masters, Beethoven，Leonardo da Vinci, Victor Hugo as like, established the premises of the concretionary emotions’ lasting value.

Whereas, we also should not ignore the undeniable fact that critic often played a crucial role in the process of discovering valuable artworks. Aside those critics, a considerable portion of those artists and their creatures could not be noticed. For instance, when the French gave the Statue of Liberty 自由女神像to U.S.A in 1886, the Augusta Chronicle -- in Georgia -- condemned it as a pagan image. Cao Xueqin (Cao Zhan), the author of the single greatest masterpiece of Chinese fiction, Hong lou meng (1792; translated as Dream of the Red Chamber)lived and worked in obscurity, however, and the novel was not published until almost 30 years after his death. And, these days, in China, Dream of the Red Chamber is still among the focus of the classics. Perhaps, provided not those critics, Status of Liberty is merely a common sculpture and Dream of the Red Chamber has been inhumed with Cao.

More often than not, the artists own played critical roles toward the universe, and artworks are their expressive ways. For example, Sherry Levine, a female photographer, has used grotesque images of women to resist the oppression of the female gender by American media, law, and social custom. Obviously, art itself has inherent critical elements. Added with those debates from the critics, artworks can appear its value finally. Consequently, we could draw a conclusion that the criticism indeed is a kind of value, or say that, art’s lasting-value depended on the debate at beginning and the accordance succedent.

As the common saying: True gold does not fear fire. If there is one—we take leave to add—it is that: True gold also needs finders. Thereby, not only the artist but the critic is significant necessary to last-lighting of those masterpieces. Even, sometimes, they two inclined to merge in only one role. Human beings need artists’ inspiring creatures, the same desire critics to grace them constantly.
