Art – The Cultural Dialogue Of Expression
Culture·
Share
The word Artist in the 17th century would have referred to any individual with a skill or mastery, but in the 21st century this term has a much wider definition, and even touches on ideology, cultural identity, nationality and more.
Art has become a cultural dialogue of expression. A dialogue can be defined as a communication between two or more people. The dialogue of expression uses thought-provoking imagery, sculptures, works on paper and other mediums. This dialogue is sometimes used to break or penetrate the boundaries of social, economic and moral topics. Igniting conversations that society would rather remain silent about or just sweep under the carpet.
Banksy sometimes referred to as the subversive and secretive street artist has started many conversations through his own dialogue of expression. His visual critique on social and political issues pushed street art into the room known as contemporary, where the disciplines of Pop Art, Mixed Media and more ever emerging disciplines now reside. For those that could not understand street art as a discipline of expression, graffiti artists would have been considered vandals at least, who defaced public property.
It really brings into question the ever changing definitions of art, when Time magazine selected Banksy, for its list of the world’s 100 most influential people back in 2010, bringing him in the company of Barack Obama, Steve Jobs and Lady Gaga. Keep in mind that he would have previously been considered a vandal.
