There are potential dozens of reasons why art and specifically painted works have grown in popularity in the past ten years, but | personally think that factors such as money and fame have very little to do with the rise of the arts. While yes, it is great that talented artists of the modern era can not only show off their art to millions and market their pieces, but I also think it has something to do with the fact that classical forms of art are inherently more important to us as a species. If we remove the monetary aspect of art and focus purely on the preferences of people viewing art, | believe that physical art such as paintings will nearly always be more valuable to the viewer. The photographic revolution suffers from the same issues that digital art suffers from. Photography has arguably become the visual medium of the century with the addition of digital photography. in my opinion Paul Delaroche I still wrong. While photographic art can be stunning it doesn’t compare to the creativity of painted works of art. While photography has largely been able to kill one genre of painting (portraits) it has never been able to effectively come close to painting in any other aspect due to the singular function of photographic technology. Overall, | believe that painting is more alive than before the 20*" century. While both digital and photographic technologies have widened the spectrum of what art can be, they don't have the same charisma as that of physical paintings. They also lack a sense of originality in many aspects due to the nature of the technology being used. References “From Today Painting is Dead": Photography’s Revolutionary Effect | Art & Object.
