Explanation:

What influenced Ancient Greek art?

Ancient Greek art was influenced by the philosophy of the time and that shaped the way they produced art forms. The difficulty in understanding Ancient Greek art is that the philosophers held a theoretical view of colour and art while the artists were more pragmatic in their production of art. This might be because the Ancient Greeks did not have a concept of art. They used the word techne, which translates as ‘skill’, to describe painting or any skilful act. Artists and architects were artisans.

Here in the word techne we see the embryo of what was to become technology. So, for the Ancient Greeks, art and technology were closely entwined, and it could be argued that this was influenced by the theories of Plato and Aristotle.
