If you admired the works of Picasso and Salvador Dali from childhood, you can skip reading this publication. If at some stages of your life, looking at canvases and other works of modern art, you wondered, where is art, where is beauty, read it, and perhaps you can understand why many did not understand and do not understand the art of the last times.
Previously, people believed in God and drew inspiration from Divine creation, but over time, people lost faith in God and soul, due to which consciousness is constantly transforming and is reflected in art.
Compare the art of different eras and peoples, and you will notice that where people professed traditional religions, art workers gave the world wonderful masterpieces. In addition, of course, scientific and technological progress also influenced the transformation of art, but it only influenced those artists and sculptors who have no place for God in their souls. Rather, only these people began to create art incomprehensible to an ordinary person.
And artists who have preserved the faith, regardless of modern technology, try to reflect in their works the true beauty, and not ugliness or intricate abstraction, which requires a special mindset for understanding.
The question is, why break your consciousness, adjusting to the worldview of a spiritually sick artist, in order to understand his creations? The works of Michelangelo and other artists and sculptors of the past are understandable to everyone, they cause admiration and incline thoughts to something bright, good, important. And the works of many artists of the XX-XXI century are not understood by everyone, and most importantly, they are devoid of the Divine component, because they are exclusively a product of the artist's consciousness.
A normal person from birth does not understand the charms of modern art, but in the process of growing he absorbs ideas from the media space and from the people around him. Thus, his consciousness is reconstructed and he begins to understand the ugly "art". But do not forget that in this way you can achieve the approval of the consciousness of people of anything. Most importantly, a little time, and people can believe in the correctness of the ideas of Nazism and in general in anything.
If we go further and think deeper, we can come to the conclusion that many works of spiritually sick artists and sculptors are harmful to the consciousness and life of people. Only today it is not customary to talk about it, and if you say somewhere, they will laugh at you and call you an ignorant dense person. We live in the 21st century! And most importantly, smart people know that contemporary art is a business, a smart business, where it is possible to raise huge money.
Now there is no Michelangelo and Raphael, but auctions must sell something, and the rich must buy something, believing that they combine investing money with cultural and spiritual development.
