The beginning

Art is everywhere, and art is beautiful. Take a moment to take a walk down the street, anywhere or anytime of the day. What you’ll notice is an array of beauty that takes many different art forms. From gardening to graffiti, from billboards to architecture. All are different ways for visual people to express themselves in our society. In a world of technology, people are able to explore the world of art and find more easily what inspires them to be expressive.

I titled my newly created blog “Art in the modern world” because art is indeed everywhere. In the 19th century, art was defined mostly as fine art, art that is now depicted in different art museums, galleries and books today.

I plan to discuss the art and its history from the past and how it translates into multimedia environments of today, the digital world. I want to incorporate how art is depicted and translated in the eye of a digital, visual person.

I want to explore the process and history of how art and its movements have grown from the Renaissance era to this multimedia age. This age that now allows me to communicate through a blog, being able to express my take on how art and digital history evolved.

I also want to explore how art museums and galleries today present the different art movements in our history in a light that involves multimedia, the art of today. Most use attentive tactics to keep the browser interested involving interactivity, music and information cards.
