Abstract
Art has evolved in ways only one can imagine, however; their imagination does not have to go far because all one has to do is turn on the computer and connect to the World Wide Web to get information on everything. Architecture, sculpture, and painting has been around for ages, then photography made its way on to the art scene in the 1820’s and has taken leaps and bounds to establish itself as fine art The evolutions of styles are also examined. The role of diversity in the development of the arts and how it changed throughout the 20th century is examined. The role of women and their influence on the various arts is discussed. The role of ethnic minorities and their influence on the various arts is examined. The relationship between art and popular culture and how this developed during the 20th century is defined. Popular culture and how it influences the arts is explained. The influence of art on popular culture is described. Role of Diversity in the Development of the Arts Before the late 19th century women were not accepted to study into official art academies, and any training they were allowed to have was that of the soft and delicate nature. This may be why that during the early years of the modern feminist art movement, the art often showed “raw” anger from the artist. “The Feminist Art Movement began with the idea that women’s experiences must be expressed through art, where they had previously been ignored or trivialized.” (Napikoski, L. 2011 ) The artists of this movements work showed a rebellion from femininity, and a desire to push the limits. Women artists began to protest at art galleries and institutions that would not accept them or their work. Some also started opening women’s learning facilities of their own, such as Judy Chicago did in 1971, when she established the Feminist Art program at Cal State Fresno. The
