From stick figures in the sand to the first animals painted and carved in stone, people around the world have responded to the world using images. The ultimate goal of art, especially in the past, was to convey meaning and express important ideas, illuminating what was important to each civilization, through eye-catching images. To become familiar with the subject matter of any painting, one must examine the artist's goals, which are regularly linked to social conditions, national or global issues, and audience demands. To avoid the drawbacks of judging all art based on our own personal experiences and opinions, we must know the context surrounding the artist at the time the work was created - that is, the social and historical conditions of the time and the logical views that influenced the way in which the artist looked at the world. Art is as vast as the life from which it comes, and each artist represents different characteristics of the world they know. For a fraction of a second, we can say that artists paint to discover reality and generate direction. The inventors of art innovate on the wonders and delicacy of nature as well as the balance and grace of man. They give these concepts an order to help us understand life more deeply. To understand the history and style of any period of art, we must understand the balance between the social and political development of that particular era. The issues of the world have been reflected in art throughout the ages.CRASH (John Matos), The Big Mouth, 1984, Spray paint on canvas.CRASH mainly practices graffiti, that is, writing or drawings that have been illegally scribbled, scratched or sprayed on a wall or other surface in a public ...... middle of paper ......d since his death - and worse, recent media campaigns have reactivated virulent resentments since the late 1920s, when Schuffenecker was suspected of imitating the work of other contemporary artists, including Van Gogh. Still a controversial issue, it has not been established whether he had produced forgeries. (De Leeuw) This art displays sharp, vivid images with a high degree of color accuracy.
