Similarly, the way that people view art also depends on their cultural background. This is my fourth point.

同样,人们看待艺术的方式也取决于他们的文化背景。这是我要说的第四点。
For most Europeans and Americans, art is mainly for decoration. It is something on a museum wall or in a glass case.
对大多数欧洲人和美国人来说,艺术主要用于装饰。艺术经常出现在博物馆的墙上或玻璃盒子里。
It makes their homes more attractive. People look at it and admire it: "Oh, what a beautiful painting!"
这让他们的家更温馨。人们看着它,赞叹道:“哦,多么美丽的画啊!”
Besides, ideas are often expressed in this art. This is a wonderful statue, and admiring it, I might say: "It makes such a strong anti-war statement."
此外,这种艺术也经常表达思想。一座完美的雕像,我很欣赏它,我可以说:“它强有力地表达了对战争的反对。”
But in other places, art is not considered to be separated from everyday existence.
但在有些地方,人们并没有把艺术与日常生活分开。
It has a function, it has a practical role to play in people's lives.
它有自己的功能,它在人们的生活中扮演着一个实际的角色。
A person in a tribal society might look at a mask and say: "Oh, this is a good mask.
一个部落社会的人可能会看着面具说:“哦,这个面具很好。
It would keep my house safe." In brief, the way in which people enjoy or appreciate art depends on their culture.
它能保佑我的房子安全。”简而言之,人们欣赏艺术的方式取决于他们的文化。
To conclude my lecture, we can say that art is a reflection of various cultures.
总结一下我讲的内容,我们可以说艺术是各种文化的反映。
But at the same time, we have to remember that art also reflects the changes in society that take place when different cultures influence one another.
但与此同时,我们必须记住,艺术也反映了不同文化相互影响时社会的变化。
As people from tribal societies move to urban areas, their values and beliefs change accordingly and their traditional art forms begin to lose their function.
当部落社会的人迁移到城市地区时,他们的价值观和信仰也随之改变,他们的传统艺术形式开始失去其功能。
At the same time, urban artists begin to learn a lot from traditional art.
与此同时,城市艺术家也开始从传统艺术中学到很多东西。
For example, African masks and figures had a great influence on Picasso's works. And many American and Canadian artists study the simplicity of Japanese painting.
例如,非洲的面具和人物对毕加索的作品有很大的影响。许多美国和加拿大的艺术家也研究日本绘画的朴素。
The result is that as the world gets smaller, the art of each culture becomes more international.
结果,随着世界变得越来越小,每种文化的艺术都变得越来越国际化。
OK, this brings us to the end of our lecture. I hope that after today's lecture, you'll understand better the significance of the study of art history.
好了,我们的讲座即将结束。我希望在今天的讲座结束后,你们能更好地理解艺术史研究的意义。
Art enables us to know more about human history,
艺术使我们更了解人类历史,
for example, people's views and opinions about certain historical events, and what's more important, about different cultures, their religious beliefs, perception of art etc.
例如,人们对某些历史事件的看法,还有更重要的,不同的文化,他们的宗教信仰,以及对艺术的理解等等。
