Truth of Contemporary Art by Giuseppe Caschera

Peter Plagens talks about how contemporary art is not mainstream. Meaning that modern art works have not attracted the amount of attention that art gained in earlier history. Contemporary is mostly stationary objects which does not attract a lot of attention that videos and live performances attract. Unlike movies that are readily available, contemporary art in its original state are not offered as much. If someone wanted to see the original art work they would have to go to the exhibit and and get the effect that the artist intended the viewer to get. Contemporary art is not itended for large audiences, since artists are not making art to show for large audiences. Artists infact want one person to come and see their work and then pay a lot of money to own it.
