Art and Globalization David Matambura Mutasa Zimbabwe Art is present in the life, culture, and religion of all people in the world, regardless of race, color, and creed. These forces have attempted to globalize things such as culture, history, tradition, religion, eating habits, clothing habits, and the like. Such forms of art demonstrate the lifestyle of these men and women and, consequently, help preserve the culture and tradition of their era. Imperialism, unlike art which has played an effective role in transmitting traditions to future generations, has continuously fought with all its might against art that teaches culture, tradition, and religion. As was mentioned, imperialist powers have shamelessly attempted, by hiding themselves behind the mask of globalization, to become the successors to the culture, tradition, and religion of other peoples. Art in the Service of Recording History Throughout the centuries, art has been a way to transmit traditional teachings from the elders to subsequent generations. This shows how some powers use globalization to bring the people of the world to a place where only a single power determines religion, culture, and traditions, and forces everyone to obey. These powers have fought hard against all types and forms of art that attempt to make the current generation aware of its own history, and they have viewed such art as a threat to their expansionist interests. Globalization in its sinister form, meaning the dominance of some nations over others without regard for prevailing international laws, has been compared to art.
