In the text “Introduction” on pages 7-8 of Material World A Global Family Portrait by Paul Kennedy, the author explains that what people call artwork today is a huge symbol of poverty in the world today that people don’t even realize. It is a beautiful thing to be able to use these photographs as art but these images are representing the struggle all over the world. The struggle of starving children and families in poverty is a major problem amongst most third world countries. This art being created is expressing all of the problems such as these families surviving day to day searching for food. Depression can be another result of all of these struggles.
In the text “Bettering the Planet” written by Charles C. Mann explains how we as humans have overcome the struggles of the world. He also explains how humans themselves represent art. How humans are willing to suffer the consequences just to satisfy themselves and want whatever the majority. Mann discusses that recently humanity has been fascinated by the areas beyond human life and outside of the earth such as space.
