nationalgalleries | Can art be good for you? @nationalgalleriesofscotland | Uploaded June 2020 | Updated October 2024, 22 minutes ago.
Art, in one form or another, has been around since the Stone Age, and to this day, museums and galleries welcome hundreds of millions of visitors every year. But why is this? What compels us to make and experience artworks? And is art really good for us?
In this new series of five films, Questions about Art, we'll explore some frequent musings about art - using questions asked by our audiences. What makes a painting iconic? Why aren't there more female artists? Why can’t I touch artworks when I'm in a gallery?
Get involved in the comments below.
