Question

How does art represent ones culture? Explain in 5-8 sentences.

Answer 1

Answer:

Art is basically depicting words through face and form, through colors and strokes. The ideas for what to make, are influenced heavily by what is around the artist, which is their culture. Take the Mughals intricate art of flowers and the culture of elephants and grandeur, or take the Medieval Ages paintings of Madonna and Child. By taking ideas and models from their culture, art initially represents the culture. Also, for art, you use the mediums present in your culture, like grassroots and dung in Turkish dyes, you use what's around you which again is your culture. Culture is the collective ideas of people in a community, and putting together centuries of ideas in a piece, influenced by someway or the other, like the vivid colors and designs of Pakistani truck art, the smooth strokes of Raphaels shading, influenced by the bright fields of the country, or the demands of the people at the time. Hence, we can conclude that since art is influenced by the artists culture and surroundings, it all in all represents the culture.
