Would it be true to say that technological and educational progress makes art increasingly complex as it is easier to use a specific art medium having means to do so?
I did not think of AI generation starting my comment but here I am with my last sentence.
- DiscourseFan 2y agoI think that's generally the case. In Aesthetic Theory (which is fairly inaccessible to the general public, probably best to read this[0] article instead) Adorno suggests that art mediums progressively annihilate each other as technology advances and the condition of possibility for an artwork is also the destruction of all previous works of art, both solidifying them in the history of art and also restructuring it entirely around the artwork itself, which contains all previous art historical ruptures inside it.
