This genealogy presentation was very enlightening! It made the linearity and progression of art practice and how they influenced each other and changed over time very clear. Many of the artworks discussed in the presentation were pieces I had learned about in a lot of detail in AP Art History in high school, so finding out more about them in terms of their trajectory in art practice was really interesting. One of the connections that became clear to me was the trend of art becoming more for the people it is made for rather than for the person it was made by, becoming more public and based on community and soul rather than being private and based on individual and ego. One of my questions would be how the surrounding non-artistic community responded to the changing climate of art practices, which styles and time periods were most accepted by society and which were not and why?
