Michael Rybinski-The art industry


3/20/13
Art has the ability to invoke a strong response within an individual, and a cultural conception of beauty is always changing. We see fads that come and go in our culture, which is spurred on by the way we relate ourselves to the objects we own. I have found that the industry of advertising is constantly manipulating our overall conceptions of what is good or beautiful. Ads themselves sell us on a concept that purchasing a particular thing will take us to this perfect world. In reality, the second we buy that thing we are automatically seeking out another perfect world. It is through this way that industry makes money, as everyone seems to be chasing an unreachable dream.
