"If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.” - George Bernard Shaw

Contemporary
Contemporary arts are those that mixes and intertwines all the art forms existed before. First, there is the Rationalists, spread just when the Enlightenment was sweeping across Europe. This form of art is focusing entirely on details and logic or science. Novels revolve around scientific discoveries. Then, the romanticism came along. It brought more sentimental feelings to audiences. Those works usually involve a hero, character that goes to jungle or something like that. A sub branch of ideas known as transcendentalism appears. This idea states that everything is of divinity. Then Civil War came along. The huge tragedy forces everyone to realize the harsh reality. Artists and writers develop works on daily events and refuse to go anything beyond it. No feelings do they insert into their works. Later, people rejected the cliche ideas and developed the modernism, which is fresh and new and beyond the scope of anything made before. Later, post modernism came along to extend the scope further. After that, comes to our newest idea, contemporary.
