Los artistas se caracterizan por ser personas creativas y con una gran sensibilidad. Esta sensibilidad les hace percatarse de las cosas horribles del mundo y de la falta de sentido en la vida. Por suerte, la gran virtud de la creatividad les da el poder de crear, de esta manera pueden compensar la fealdad del mundo con la belleza de su arte y llenar ese vacĂo existencial a travĂ©s de Ă©l. Entre la obra y el artista hay un diálogo, en este se unen el mundo interior del artista con el mundo exterior que le envuelve.Â
El Quijote es un ejemplo de estos genios atormentados, al vivir en una sociedad antropocentrista en el Renacimiento ya no hay un Dios que llene su vacĂo existencial, además, al leer libros que le llevan a otros mundos que se le hacen mil veces más interesantes que su propia realidad se siente incluso más carente de significado. Para intentar acabar con esta melancolĂa que le envuelve se refugia en su máxima obra de arte, la cual no es ni una pintura ni un poema, si no Ă©l mismo. Él mismo crea este personaje excĂ©ntrico y loco que le permite llenar su mundo, su propio ser es el arte que le da sentido a la existencia.Â
Salvador DalĂ es otro ejemplo de estos "genios locos" o "artistas atormentados", Ă©l mismo se convirtiĂł en su obra de arte más importante. Su aparente locura no es más que una máscara que Ă©l mismo crea para buscar significado. Es el diálogo entre el mundo exterior y el mundo interior del artista a travĂ©s del arte.Â

Artists are characterized by being creative individuals with great sensitivity. This sensitivity makes them aware of the world's horrors and the lack of meaning in life. Fortunately, their great virtue, creativity, gives them the power to create, allowing them to counterbalance the world's ugliness with the beauty of their art and fill that existential void through it. There is a dialogue between the artwork and the artist, where the artist’s inner world merges with the external world that surrounds them.
Don Quixote is an example of these tormented geniuses. Living in an anthropocentric society during the Renaissance, there was no longer a God to fill his existential void. Moreover, by reading books that transported him to other worlds, which seemed a thousand times more fascinating than his own reality, he felt even more devoid of meaning. To escape the melancholy that consumed him, he took refuge in his greatest work of art, which was neither a painting nor a poem, but himself. He created an eccentric, crazy character that allowed him to fill his world, his very being became the art that gave meaning to his existence.
Salvador Dalà is another example of these "mad geniuses" or "tormented artists." He turned himself into his most important work of art. His apparent crazyness was nothing more than a mask he created in his search for meaning. It is the dialogue between the artist’s inner world and the outer world through art.
