ABSTRACT

The topic of lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgenders is becoming an issue of intensive debate and it is also represented through a large amount of artwork. The mutual relationship could also be seen through this group between art and history and it is reasonable for us to explore it through different approaches. We analyze the actual content of art forms, such as film or oil painting, then get their artistic expression purpose and final presentation effect according to our own understanding and public reaction. Meanwhile, we also focused on the detailed characteristics of artworks, such as the color application of oil painting, and combined with real-life, analyzing the purpose of artists and their effect on history. We used specific and typical examples to give a general conclusion. For instance, we picked certain oil paintings to give a general conclusion towards most of the oil paintings. Art may cause people to deviate from their understanding of some social problems and social groups, thus causing their support and attraction to become less powerful. Art, however, will continue to serve as propaganda and attraction, making it easier for people to understand and accept certain social minorities. At the same time, artists often use contrasting colors in artistic works, especially paintings, to represent a rebellious historical event. At the same time, history can restore truth to some extent, but the truth is relative in any case.
