Graphic art and the Media (Mag.)

In the modern world adverts are considered as art, for example Billboards and other sorts of advertising is carefully created following the rules of design and making the advert into a piece of art. However, Modern art now also works as advertising modern culture and popular aspects of today's world, such as comics, movies, magazines, films, events etc. Art can advertise modern things, even without the artist being aware of it. Art is formed from popular aspects of the modern society, these aspects are then transferred into the works the artists create. This starts a sort of advertising. For example, a horse of a certain type can be seen as the Ferrari logo and therefore advertise Ferrari. Now that we have all been exposed to so many companies and organizations, we can make links to them through art. There are also works were the piece is made completely out of advertising symbols and ideas, which then can be seen as a art piece which advertises.
