Is it really art what moves the world today?
June, 16; 2024. By Arscodex
Today we come to reflect a little on what moves the world in these times; Without a doubt money is important, power, sex, yes; Traditionally, all of this is what moves the world, but we must ask ourselves if Art in general, including architecture, sculpture and painting (mainly) is not what makes us especially vibrate and with it, feel alive; to us, humanity.
Well, there are three artistic focuses that we want to highlight today and make the reader think about just as we ourselves also reflect on it: the pyramids of Egypt, the Acropolis of Athens and the Italian Renaissance (in order of chronological appearance in our little world).
We must ask ourselves how much copyright we should pay to the ideologue or promoter of the construction of the Egyptian pyramids, in this case the pharaohs; We must also ask ourselves how much copyright we in the West owe to Phidias, the Greek sculptor who decorated the Parthenon and the other various artists who worked on the Acropolis in Athens. And of course it is also necessary to ask ourselves how much Italians should pay firstly and humanity secondly to the seasoned artists of the Renaissance (which in a non-exhaustive list we can mention Botticelli, Brunelleschi, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Rafael Sanzio) since his works were created until today.
On a more modern level we can mention cinema as a king of intangible art and also even gastronomy, as well as other experiences of all kinds that human beings are willing to share in our time.
Therefore, the conclusion is clear: In the absence of conflict (even with it anyway), everything that smells like Art with capital letters makes the world move in a more rhythmic way now that fast travel exists, tourism; It is a great time to go visit all those incredible enclaves and enjoy what these seasoned artists have left us, to the delight of all of us.
