This is a study and investigation in how an artist and their technique are viewed as non-conformist by the standards of their contemporaries and pioneers by future generations and how the reactions of the work changed art for the better or worse through their differing methods, going against the standard of their time created something new and over spilled into the next movement between the years of 1860 to current day. I want to see if art progression is a thing that needed to happen in such a radical way or if simply being exceptionally good at your craft was enough.…
Art can be and is a fundamental part of society and history. Many different perspectives are formed one any one piece of art because everyone see’s art in a different light. It is the artists’ job to come up with an idea that they want to convey to the masses and find a medium for which they can do so. However, in the end we all can come away with a different opinion of what we just saw. In today’s society, we are often opposed to reliving the harsh realities of our past, rape, enslavement, and war for a few examples.…

Throughout the time periods art has been explored consistently to reach places never been before. With this in mind societal advances have played major influence in the development of modern and contemporary art. As technology develops and enhances in our society artists have the ability to manipulate their artworks with new technologies to reflect the societal change occurring. Artists ‘Patricia Piccinini’ and ‘Lee Bul’ have both used the conventions of technology and integrated not just the technologically developed materials but also the challenging notions of how technology is viewed by society throughout their artworks. By exploring the natural and the artificial these modern artists confront contemporary society with contemporary art forms changing the concept of what an art object is.…

In John Berger’s essay titled “Ways of Seeing,” he shines a light on the way we collectively and individually see the world. Mr. Berger has conjured the fact that everyone has experienced their own view of the world, throughout time. This has, in turn, revealed our history, through visual communication. Mr. Berger is sharing his view on how the reproductions of art, and through reproducing historical and contemporary art, that it is mystifying our direct correlation to the past. John Berger states the importance to keep original works of art, protected and not privatized. Mr. Berger calls out to those who are actively doing so, the powerful upper class and the upper academicians globally. John Berger also persuades us as well, he persuades through the use of rhetorical strategies of that logos, ethos, and pathos, to change our perspective on how we view the past and the possible long term never ending the influence of the future.…

Because we live in a century dominated by technology innovation, art itself has been offered new creative horizons. But these new advantages have not been considered so beneficial for the art by some conservative art lovers, who believe that if the art is not created using traditional tools (pen, oils, watercolor, etc.) that art cannot be considered true art (true in the meaning of recognizing it’s real values).…
I think the most important part of art is understanding how styles developed over the years and what influenced those developments. Some art movements develop based on political context, while others are created as a contrast to the current popular art movement. From a historical standpoint, I feel that portraiture is the best way to capture the essence of everything throughout the past. If I were an art director, I would choose to a portraiture display to show the progression of styles through time.…
