I was very impressed to learn that people always have a life with art like ancestor were using art in various ways to live their life; they were not using art for only expression of feelings and thoughts. The interesting thing is some ancient did not know that it is the art even though they did it and left it as a current society’s cultural asset of meaningful art work such as stemmed vessel and Stonehenge of the Neolithic era. For instance, the Stonehenge built on Salisbury Plain in 2000-1500 B.C.E. It is the area where several stones stood in a circle with a long stone on top of two or more stones. Some archaeologist found out the 240 people whose have been buried there. By archaeologist’s research, I can guess this place is made for ancient’s graves. It has probably been one of the places that our ancestor used for life, but not for art. Additionally, art kept developing over a century of new knowledge of ancestors or new resources. For one thing, our ancestors made stemmed vessel, bowl, storage jars, and all sorts of other practical objects came into being when they discovered that fire could harden certain kinds of clay. All they were created with a different shape and size. It is very amazing that some of living materials can be count as the art, and art does not have standard from. As Mr. Zucman’s lecturing note, the songs, remix cultures, and spam art can be count as the art, too. People can write any words that they want to express to the society. These written phrases and words are full with wonderful descriptions, and it is another kind of art. An audience can have the same impression like they do in painting or drawing when they heard the song or poetry. It is fantastic when entire universe and world are seemed to be surrounded by art. It comes freshly to me and gives me a new view toward the art.
