Context....

When art is put into conext it is put in a place to give it an appropriate reading, painting for a specific place thus says something about the piece. Now art has been decontextralised, paintings move around, hence we cannot make art for one context. Taking this onboard we mistify the pas, we need to put things into context. Taking this onboard, looking at art of the masters it makes me perhaps look at them differently than beforre and take thier background into account ie the fact that they were forced to do art from such a young age and this was their life from that age. It makes me think when looking at the work of the 'greats'' about hte history behind the making of the piece.
