Public art

Art reveals how an artist felt or interpreted an event during their time. Somewhat like how John reads Shakespeare, John is reflecting on Shakespeare’s feelings and perceives it in his own way. Also the fact that Mond constantly tries to crush art shows that art is a representation of individuality, going directly against his utopian beliefs. Mond specifically tries to rid the utopia of individuality which is revealed and attributed to art. Art is a blank canvas for those with creativity and…

attend public schools do not have to pay for tuition, uniforms, and books. So, with the lack of constant income, due to rise in other government programs, such as defense; the schools will have to drop the programs that do not benefit the school financially. The first to go are the fine art programs, this is because they are seen as less important and a waste of money. Many schools are more invested in their sports programs because they can bring in more revenue for school districts. Art…

to make a huge impact on the art world as well as to the people who are able to view his work. He works undercover, and is rarely seen. He is under the impression that the less that people know about him, the more they will concentrate on his art and what it is really trying to say to us as his viewers. He does not make art to make others happy, he makes art to make a statement to others. Banksy has had his images on the Louvre as well as the Metropolian Museum of Art, but not on the inside as…

In their recent work, Sherman Alexie and Jonathan Lethem have offered harsh critiques of the literary communities for their efforts to hinder the progress of art. The authors, however, address the issues from different perspectives: While Alexie in The Introduction I Meant to Write attacks nepotism in poetical circles, Lethem in The Ecstasy of Influence argues against the appropriation of the culture by artists and corporations. An Alexie claim that “Nepotism is as common as oxygen” rests upon…

scientific and technological progress dominated public interest. Considering the economic boost that science brought about, it was practically over-romanticized by members of society and it appeared to be the answer to every problem. However, the purpose of Morris’ speech is to challenge this idea that science is the key to human advancement. Through the use of a sarcastic tone, positive dictation, and a comparison Morris reminds audience members of the value of art over science and of the…

“Art, in short, has the greatest impact of any subject on standardized test scores.” - James Catterall. Arts education refers to learning, instruction, and programming based upon visual and tangible arts. Unrestricted exploration helps children form connections in their brains, so it helps them learn. Although society views arts education as classes just reserved for talented scholars, it should be apart of the school’s curriculum because theater participation helps develop social tolerance, it…

Like many college students I didn't know what I wanted to study, but at the time my interest was inclined into public services. I wasn't until I took a Western art survey course that I found true passion, and ever since then I knew that I wanted to be an art historian. For me the study of art history is more about personal and academic enriching, than a financial reward. I chose to be an art historian because I believe in is potential contributions to society culturally specially in education.…

Robert Louis Stevenson’s essay, ‘A Humble Remonstrance’, [2001, (1884] is a direct onslaught on, the ongoing debate on the nature and function of fiction initiated by two renowned authors Walter Besant and Henry James, whose essays both entitled ‘The Art of Fiction’ attempt to define the artistic side of fiction. Each author entering this discussion had differing views on the subject, and the crux of this debate was to define the laws of what constitutes the definition of ‘Realism’. This…

believed that artists were able to use this stolen fire to create art and interpret truth in a way that normal people were incapable of doing. This view led to them being revered as god-like or even as demigods! There were also many critics who neither trusted artists, as they had allegedly used the stolen fire from the Sun, nor believed they were of any value in the public circle, viewing artwork as useless. In other words, “Art doesn’t have the honesty of reason nor the power of philosophy.”…
