Based on Emily McEwan's "Berger's way of seeing the Arts"

1.What is the main idea of the essay?
     Berger's outlook on how people in the past look at Art and how certain aspects changed the way people view it in the modern times.

2. Show the supporting ideas. (in bullet form)

• During the time of traditional oil painting, Berger said that paintings were prized because they were the only way to capture a  moment and possess it forever but this changed when cameras were introduced to the society.
• The way how Art is interpreted and viewed as a whole has changed because of the turbulent effects that technology has brought to the civilized world and how it affected people.
• Publicity is also one of the multitudinous aspects why Art has been differently viewed today. One example of this is how Art is used as forms of advertisements to show what people need to satisfy their needs.
• Female nude painting has also been viewed in a different light today compared to the era of traditional painting because before then, it seems modest than what we see today.
