Question

for years, community art was created by a professional for the enjoyment or education of a public group. how did the definition change in the nineteenth century? community art was now also exhibited in museums, community art was now also created to spark a revolution, community art was now also created to make a place beautiful, community art was now also created by community members

Answer 1

Community art came to include works made by the community members themselves — not just professionals producing art for the public. In the 19th century participatory, folk, and craft practices (and movements like Arts & Crafts) helped broaden the definition to include art created by ordinary people for their own communities.
