What were the motivating impulses in art for early civilizations? How are these impulses reflected in the artifacts of these civilizations? How is the style of an artwork conditioned by its function?

As we know, the first known records of art are cave paintings. They were made by primitive men, as a form of reminder communication and as a record of their activities.

As time went by and the creation of the first civilizations, art assumed new and impulsive goals. These impulses were as diverse as religious, intellectual and cultural impulses, for example. Art in these societies was a way of showing talent and sophistication and was limited to the elite of society.

as we can see in the older societies, art was geared towards a function that depended on the time when it was being executed, an example of this, is the art established at the time of the renaissance that had the function of promoting man more rationality and less religiosity . This relationship between art and functionality can be seen today, in works of art that drive recurring social and cultural issues in our society.

An artwork is an enduring thing which is created by an artist about an aesthetically pleasing object which is appreciated.

With this in mind, we can see that during the Han Dynasty, there was the appreciation of artwork which led to the creation of potteries, ceramics and various forms of art which was also culturally diffused to other countries in Asia and other parts of he world
