Saving the Losing Arts
Little is it known how quickly we are losing the arts that have defined various generations. The liking for art has had a sharp decline over the years. Although there are still advocates of the losing arts, people who deem art as insignificant to this era still dominates. These are the type of people who take art for granted. Art almost never gets its credits. Looking at an advanced invention, we immediately consider its technicalities. We often overlook the artistic inspiration of the design. This is not merely an art for aesthetic issue alone. It’s more than that. By understanding art more than an aesthetic, we may just yet succeed in saving the losing arts. So, what is art and how is it significant in today’s digital era? Art and Its Significance Art plays a significant role in our society. It does not only exist to send extreme gratification to our senses. The beauty that manifests on art is its unspoken content. Yes, art is a powerful medium that delivers a message in a very impactful way. A lot of famous artists were captured during their time due to the political scandals exposed in their crafts. However, the issues did not limit in politics alone. Religion, economics, falsified history, mistrials, and other human scandals became exposed through art. Many cunning artists succeeded in hiding social issues that critics failed to comprehend the underlying message of their crafts. Art represents issues of certain timelines. This is exactly why art remains significant, despite the era that we live in. Surely enough, the postmodern approach to art is far too different from the classical era's. But, this doesn’t excuse us from completely forgetting the classical works. After all, the postmodern movement emerged with visible traces of these artworks. Advocating Substantive Art to Preserve the Losing Arts It takes a profound understanding of art for us to preserve the losing arts. Considering the generation we are in, art for aesthetic purposes has dominated the field of art. As a consequence, people perceive art as vainglorious outputs of skills. As this continues to stain art’s reputation, the losing arts will eventually get lost in the progression of time. To save and preserve the losing arts, we must advocate ourselves to substantive artworks. Let us refrain from creating art that mocks art itself. This instance is extremely rampant in today’s pop culture, especially in the music industry. As this attempt on art predominates the field of art, it becomes a culture forced into the next generation. As a result, the substantive classical artworks are doomed to be forgotten. Relishing in artworks that speak volumes of moral helps promote the preservation of the losing arts. Not only that, it halts the senseless production of “art” that mocks art itself. By stopping the wretched state of today’s pop culture we definitely could make art great again. Read the full article
