Abstract

West Sumatra is one of the regions that contribute many artists to the field of arts. One of the field of arts that gains so much attention is contemporary art. It is an art that is no longer bound to the rules of past works. Contemporary art has gained such a rapid growth that it intrigues many researchers to conduct studies on it. This present study attempts to investigate the factors that influence the development of contemporary art and how these factors determine the direction of its development. The study was conducted with descriptive qualitative methods. It involved interviews with several informants, and reading and comparing various related literatures. Based on the results, it can be concluded that contemporary art has undergone significant growth and development which are influenced by the social system such as the environment, the education in West Sumatra, the arts community and so on.
