EOC Week 10: Art serving Capitalism

Art serving capitalism is another form of saying what you make or what you create you should get paid for what you do. I believe that is really well put, but the system has its ways around capitalism. Say that someone had created something amazing for a company or for their own enjoyment and suddenly it gets noticed. Well when you sign out all the rights to your creation you have no rights anymore and you will get nothing. That’s the perspective view I take on art and capitalism, when there is no capitalism there is no art. Other than that there are many ways that they both are beneficial towards each other. I think it’s just a sense of how you put it together or how well they both interact, I mean artist right now are taking the downfall for the worst…well some are but not all. Being in a capitalist community makes it worse for people who don’t work really well with capitalism, and it’s not worth it, where as artists I believe are more beneficial and can provide a cornucopia of ideas to the playing field. Such as Advertising work, Graphic designs, web designs. Anything that deals with a creative process that brings a good attention the artists themselves and also from there you will gain capitalism. Some may think it’s wrong to sell your rights and creativeness to capitalism but that is what they want and that’s how the market will sell, is based on how good the work is, and how well thought out the invention goes. Some might say it’s a little selfish but I think it’s a great way to reach to the public and get started in a different environment where you can grow and gain more experience as art serving the capitalist country.
