Conceptual art is an evolving form of art that integrates many of the ideas and philosophies of different artists. It can be broken down into many subgenres that can be used to have an impact on society. In this article, I will discuss the works of several artists who were influential in conceptual art. Marcel Duchamp; Elaine Sturtevant; and Robert Rauschenberg. Then, I will briefly discuss the work of Lawrence Weiner.
Elaine Sturtevant
The American artist Elaine Sturtevant has been misunderstood all her life. In the past ten years, however, she has been praised by many critics. The Museum of Modern Art, New York, organized the retrospective "Sturtevant. Double Trouble," which was the first U.S. institution that showed the artist's work in its entirety since 1973.
Robert Rauschenberg
Robert Rauschenberg conceptual painting is a type of painting that includes a conceptual component in the creation of a piece. American artist, Robert Rauschenberg, has many of his works in the collections of prestigious institutions such as Tate Modern (National Gallery of Australia), Tate Modern (National Gallery of Modern Art), Tate Britain and Tate Modern. Rauschenberg's work often draws on street materials such as paper or dirt, which can be a factor in his humanitarian efforts.
Marcel Duchamp
Conceptual art has many references to the notion of "readymade". Duchamp created readymades using objects that he found everyday and made them into works. Duchamp's symbols are symbolic in their nature. They have themes such eroticism (desire), childhood memory, and desire. The idea was to show how the avant-garde rules of art practice were absurd. He also made readymades for the prevailing social values of class, gender hierarchy, and other related issues.
Lawrence Weiner
Lawrence Weiner's work has been widely displayed around the world. His works are held in many museums, including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, and the Art Institute of Chicago. Weiner was born and raised in South Bronx. Weiner also attended Hunter College. He has also shown in many private collections around the globe.
Marcel Duchamp's Fountain
The "Fountain" exhibition, curated by Francis M. Naumann at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, is one of the most significant exhibitions of the twentieth century. Among its many enduring significances, the work represents a turning point in art history. It reveals Duchamp’s ambivalent approach to truth. Duchamp did not place importance on truth or objectivity in his works, and it is important to consider this in context.
Marcel Duchamp's Urinal
Marcel Duchamp's Fountain is the most famous urinal in history, but there is a lot of controversy over its attribution. It was designed by Duchamp and Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven, and was submitted to the Society of Independent Artists in 1917. Although the urinal was not accepted, it is considered an important piece of conceptual art. It was displayed at New York's Grand Central Palace.
Marcel Duchamp's Three and One Chairs
Kosuth’s assemblage of a folding seat with an image and a full-sized dictionary definition of a chair is considered Duchamp’s readymades. Both works question the meaning and emphasise the relationship between picture and language. They also question how art is created through language, and whether art can be art for its own sake. Kosuth was inspired in part by Duchamp’s readymades.

The music industry is changing rapidly, and this year we saw artists such as Billie Eilish, Post Malone, and Travis Scott all reach number 1 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart. This was an extraordinary feat for any artist.
The same applies to streaming services. Spotify reported that they streamed 10 billion hours of audio content in the last year. This is five times more than what Spotify users listened to just five years back!
This has resulted a huge shift in the ways people consume media. These days, people spend more time consuming content than creating it.
Everybody, from babies to old age, can now listen to high-quality audio content. Anyone can now record, edit, remix, and publish their music.
To play your favorite song you don't have a degree in classical music theory. Simply download an application, add your voice and upload them on YouTube.

Pop culture's greatest asset is its ability to bring people together. Everyone wants the same show. Everyone loves the same music. People like the same movies. Pop culture allows us connect.
The problem is that not all pop culture is healthy. Some movies glorify violence. Some TV programs mock people with mental disabilities. Some artists encourage drug-taking fans.

We should try not to allow pop culture to influence us. It shouldn't be allowed to influence us. It can cause problems for our health. It can lead you to crime. It can even lead to a loss of love.
We should also think about whether pop culture is helping or hurting society. Are its values being promoted? Are people being encouraged to do wrong things?
Lastly, let's ask ourselves if we are content with the world we live. What music do you like? The TV shows we watch? What clothes do we wear?
If we care about our future, then we have to be accountable for our actions. We need to decide what kind of world we want to live in. Once we have decided what kind of world we want, then we can choose the best pop culture.
