Answer: Philip Glass (born January 31, 1937)[1] is an American composer and pianist. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential composers of the late 20th century.[2][3][4] Glass's work has been described as minimal music, having similar qualities to other "minimalist" composers such as La Monte Young, Steve Reich, and Terry Riley.[5] Glass describes himself as a composer of "music with repetitive structures",[6] which he has helped evolve stylistically.[7][8]
Glass founded the Philip Glass Ensemble, with which he still performs on keyboards. He has written numerous operas and musical theatre works, twelve symphonies, eleven concertos, eight string quartets and various other chamber music, and film scores. Three of his film scores have been nominated for Academy Awards.

from a chemical point of view, time really does change art. Mediums darken, some colours fade and the support material adjusts. The biggest change is that we the viewer are placing on the art piece.

Art influences society by changing opinions, instilling values and translating experiences across space and time. Research has shown art affects the fundamental sense of self. Painting, sculpture, music, literature and the other arts are often considered to be the repository of a society's collective memory.
