It is my fifth time in the Art Museum and did not realize different cultures that apply today in society. Furthermore, there was a fashion gallery showdown, the reason for a crowded atmosphere.

Theories in art differ greatly from those in the natural sciences. In a broader sense, a theory can be thought of as a conceptual type of thinking. Hence, every piece of artwork can be considered a theory. This is because every artwork is an interpretation of a certain aspect of the world.
