Who is the one that provides something of lasting value to society? The statement asserts that the one is the artist instead of the critic. From my point of view, however, it is the artist who creates the art and it is the critic who gives the art more vigor and space to develop.

To begin with, it is the artist who leaves us many masterpieces, which bring us visual pleasure to appreciate and connotation to cogitate. Art works created by the painter, are always the reflection of their emotion. The time when painters find the beauties in life, they would record them in their special way. And through their works, we can sometimes appreciate that kind of visual pleasure that they find but we miss, such as Mona Lisa-- the famous piece produced by Leonardo ad Vinci. Also, literature works give us a path to watch the society from another angle, because these works are insightful analysis of writers-- only in another form to reflect it. Mark Twain, the famous American, whose works are characterized by broad, often irreverent humor and biting society satire, can make us cogitate the situation in American at that time.

However, the critic-- the one who is familiar with a certain artist-- can helps us ordinary people choose and understand the art works. Obviously, the evaluation of critic sometimes serves as a filter, which provides us the priority of art works we should concern while choosing one. For example, when a best-selling book which is not worth reading appears, the critic's filter can surely gain more time to turn to other worth more literatures. Also, not all of us are experts in any of the art fields, then, naturally, the critics engage themselves in the work of interpretating insightfully the works that they are particularly familiar with. In this sense, we can understand with the help of critic.

Moreover, the critic also provides feedbacks to artist; and those criticism; if taken into consideration, can sometimes benefits the artist. It is entirely possible that artist sometimes makes mistakes and then critic points out it in order to make people aware. If an artist is modest enough to accept the different, sometimes harsh criticism dialectically, improvement is surely to come, just as an influential proverb in China, by Confucius, says" There is always someone to learn from among three people. ".

Last, retrospecting the history, great feasts, which give some lasting value to society, are those that were produced by that artist and criticized by the critic. Literature, painting and movie etc. are the same. After listening to all kinds of opinions, we no longer treat Hamlet as a pathetic; after viewing all kinds of interpretation, we understand Van Gogh more thoroughly; after weighing all kinds of sayings, we know that the movie Titanic shows not only a tragedy but also the greatness of love.

Without artist, we lose the art; without critic, we lose ration to some extent. With a delicate and critical consideration of both the artist and the critic, we can safely arrive at the conclusion that artist is the source of art works, and citric is the one making the works to be widely-used mirrors which can engage the contemporaries and future generations to analyze the society insightfully.

Who is the one that provides something of lasting value to society? The statement asserts that the one is the artist instead of the critic. From my point of view, however, it is the artist who creates the art and it is the critic who gives the art more vigor and space to develop.

Art works created by the painter, are always the reflection of their emotion. The time（the time 还是删掉把） when painters find the beauties in life, they would record them in their special way.

However, the critic-- the one who is familiar with a certain artist-- can helps us ordinary people choose and understand the art works. Obviously, the evaluation of critic sometimes serves as a filter, which provides us the priority of art works we should concern（优先选择哪本书，这样表达好象有些牵强） while choosing one. For example, when a best-selling book which is not worth reading appears, the critic's filter can surely gain more time to turn to other worth more literatures（这句话是什么意思，没看懂）. Also, not all of us are experts in any of the art fields, then, naturally, the critics engage themselves in the work of interpretating insightfully the works that they are particularly familiar with. In this sense, we can understand with the help of critic.

Moreover, the critic also provides feedbacks to artist; and those criticism; if taken into consideration, can sometimes benefits the artist.

你的观点应该是平衡观点把
总体上分论点的选取还是恰到好处的，不过倒数第二段好像纯粹是举例说明批评家的作用，但是该段首句同时提到了艺术家和批评家，我觉得还是再加上几句写艺术家的，这样整段就可以作为对他们共同作用于艺术价值的总结。

好象你写这篇文章花的时间也很长，我们都是差不多的问题，怎么样才能在短时间内写出足够字数的文章，很头疼。你的时间包括列提纲想例子的时间吗？
