For me art is a reflections of ones feeling conveying an important historical moment for that person. All throughout history you can see leaders, kings, and other political figures have been glorified after victories. Using marble, bronze, paintings, and architecture these leaders were recreated displaying honor, leadership, wisdom, and strictness.
But in our current times I believe art shifted from displaying people in position of power and to self expression. Everyday people expression themselves through music, drawing, and painting for just the simple reason of self expression. I personally turn to music everyday to make my day better and smoother. I want to be able to take knowledge of important figures and the arts created to represent them pre Renaissance period.
