Art and Privilege


Tell me what you do and can tell you where you had been. If the history of art shows many stages of our evolution, for example, in France some the cave Niux show panting closed to10, 000 years and more show every day experience of the hunt and spirits who rule in the hunt, forward in Egypt the standing monuments of despotic rulers the Pharaohs, not doubt Art was produced of the everyday, but was not important to maintain.
The medieval art still around a despotic rulers, and despotic religion whether was the Roman Catholic Church or Islam. The religion in the name of a God, the everyday life was not important, with the rebellion by Luther against the church brought down God to every one, no more on the hands of the few. The
Golden age of the Dutch republic, the Republic brought down the monumental despotic to less despotic leaders of the city. Not to say, the monumental art continue, the National Socialism, Fascist and the Realism of the Soviet Union continue the tradition. Capitalism continues the monuments of individual egos, the French president to mark the rule get to choose a monument for themselves.
What the art shows the fact, the in our evolution nepotism and privilege is given by permit. Education accreditation is given by the state or private organizations or enterprise become the gate keepers. As individuals we accept their rule with out question or challenge, but what art has evolved each generation is reflect more about itself slowly taken the gate keepers power, but stopping to submitted and more important their right of being the gate keeper.
