Terms of the Day for November 14


  • Pluralism - a Postmodern movement in art that assumes the cultural context of art should be all-encompassing in its respect for the art of the world's wide variety of cultures and artistic styles, and that diverse cultural and stylistic influences can coexist in a work of art.
  • Biennials – large scale international exhibitions of contemporary art which take place every two years.  These events have come to kick-start careers of artists and produce or frame the art history to be studied by future generations.
  • Santería - a syncretic religion of Caribbean origin influenced by and syncretized with Roman Catholicism. Its liturgical language, a dialect of Yorùbá, is also known as Lucumí.
