Some argue that local pieces of art should be displayed widely rather than artworks derived from the culture of other countries. This essay attempts to shed light on the two reasons why I completely agree with this idea.
Firstly, putting national works of art on display will help promote the cultural heritage of the nation to around the world, due to the fact that when foreign tourists visit museums or galleries, they want to learn about the artworks of that country and it will deeply ingrain in their mind that is an opportunity to enhance the international visibility of the country’s art. In addition, it helps the local forms of art included in the art map to develop the cultural and economic values of the nation.
Secondly, local citizens will gain a deeper insight into domestic art. People will be aware of cultural and conventional values via beautiful pieces of art from that they prefer to devote to national art. On the other hand, students also broaden their mind and outlook regarding the culture and art of their country and are proud of it more. Hence, domestic artworks stood the best of time without being forgotten by the citizens of the country themselves.
To sum up, local works should be displayed at museums and galleries instead of foreign forms of art. It will help promote the domestic heritage to the world and enhance the consciousness of citizens about the national art.
