Why are some western body arts expressed in nudity?
Throughout western art, great changes have taken place in western art since the Renaissance, and various art forms have begun to be displayed in the form of nudity, especially human body art. Men and women who are not in rags have become the basic forms of art display, and the reasons behind this are directly related to ideological emancipation.
Before the Renaissance, Europe experienced a thousand years of Middle Ages, which was the darkest period in European history. Religion imprisons people's spiritual world and all aspects of life. The development of technology is stagnant, the economy is depressed, civilization is retrogressive, and human nature is suppressed in the dark and tight religious shackles.
The beginning of the era of great navigation broke this dark situation. People have seen a wider world, their pent-up nature for thousands of years has been released, and their thoughts have been completely liberated from religion. The focus of attention has shifted from God and Satan to reality and their inner world. Taking nudity as an artistic expression is a major symbol of ideological emancipation and cognitive change.
Show the beauty of the human body In ancient Greece, people highly praised the beauty of the human body. The characters in Greek mythology are very strong and handsome, men are full of muscles and women have moving lines. Western Europe resumed this tradition in the Renaissance, expressing nudity in various artistic forms such as sculpture and oil painting, which is also an appreciation and worship of human beauty.
Showing desire nudity can certainly become an art form, but it is also a direct display of human desire. For a large number of non-artist audiences, nude painting will greatly attract them. Undeniably, the use of nudity as an art form also caters to the market. In order to survive, artists may also use people's desires for profit under the guise of art.
