Hi guys!
Taking advantage of today was the "Day of the cultural heritage" in our country, I will talk about one of the oldest heritage that we have.
It's about Popular Art :)
The popular art, is tha art of common people, is more closer to handicrafts. This art, is not related with series production or with legitimation of control and power directly of the authority.
Along of all american continent, the pupolar art is present in cultures since inmemorable times. We can find it in different instruments, artefacts, ornaments, tools, even in the wardrobe, and this can be made with different materials: ceramic, stone, brass, wood, glass, fiber vegetal, fiber of animals, gypsum, among others.
The importance of the popular art for history, lie in show us the different cultural expressions that come from the people, those artisan records that not come from powers of domination or economy. This art is apart of all those.
In addition, through these we can visualise diverse sphere of social life and his practises, such as religion, work, education, beliefs, medicine, rituals, among others.
Is really interesting! :)
Bye, have a nice week :)
