What happens to art when the government regulates it? What happens when the ways people express themselves and the way that the public has access to these expressions are limited to approval? Many people believe that there is a difference between the way that Cuba regulates art and the way that (for say) America regulates art. However, the only difference is that money regulates art in America (which is basically like the government regulating it). Those in government have the most money/ influence, they (many times) get a say in what kind of art is the best and most sophisticated or the most ‘adequate’ to be publicized. Art in many ways, is limited to the rich, famous, or influential. Rarely is the artwork of the poor and underprivileged showcased and held as historical artifacts of that social contexts (time, history, etc). When we limit art, we limit the entirety of our histories as humans. We limit humanity.
