Role of online world and technology in fine arts

Abstract

In the arts, technology has always placed limits on how artworks are produced and distributed. Art worlds are not isolated cultures but highly influenced by the changes in surrounding society. The production of culture perspectives that have developed in sociology since the 1970s show how the elements of culture are shaped by systems within which they are produced and preserved The music business is an example of how external factors, such as information and communication technologies (ICTs), have altered production conditions and methods. In the case of fine art, online communication that makes it easy to manipulate, copy, distribute information, and interact with an audience has challenged the exclusivity of artwork and the artist’s role.
