Admittedly, some works of art would appear to reject, or at least provide a respite from,
science and technology. One example is the modern minimalist movement, which one might
interpret as a reaction against, or a break from, the increasingly complex modern industrial age.
However, I am hard-pressed to think of any other significant art form or movement that dearly
seemed motivated by a desire to break free of science and technology.
Moreover, the speaker's concern for whether art's function is to embrace or oppose science
and technology begs the question, for the final objective of art lies instead in its ability to
convey a society's values, ideals, and concerns. The pyramids and obelisks of the ancient
world, as well as the great cathedrals of Renaissance Europe, including the murals and
sculptures in and around them, reflected a societal preoccupation with transcending the
human condition. During the Medieval period the most important architectural form was the
castle, which reflected an overriding concern for military security during a time of relative
anarchy. During the 18th and 19th Centuries, an emerging genteel upper-middle class saw
itself reflected in the bourgeois themes of impressionists such as Renoir and Monet. The
machine-tooled art deco style of the early 20th Century reflected industrial society's penchant
for technological progress, while modern abstract art mirrors the frenetic world that has
resulted from that progress.
In sum, while I agree that art is indeed influenced by science and technology, this influence
is mainly in the materials and processes that science makes available to the artist. The final
objective of art, far from having any beating on science or technology per se, is to hold a mirror
up to the society in which the artist operates. 感谢您阅读《GRE作文范文大全(72) 》一文,出国留学网(liuxue86.com)编辑部希望本文能帮助到您。
