Religion has always played a key role in art expression. how do you think it has changed from primitive times through the renaissance, to today?
(the two other answers didn't .)

Art has often centered itself around societal belief systems and the aesthetic of the times. Taking on a eurocentric point of view in this answer; in medieval ages, societies ran on superstition and the power of religious authorities, and the art of the time reflected that as the majority of art created were of deities. After the Age of Enlightenment and the romantic movement, rationalism and realism swept the artistic world. Here, religious powers were represented less as artists and writers began focusing more and more on the tangible and the transcription of real life. In the Post-Modern era, where we are now, religious works don't often come from a place of worship anymore. They have become more of a platform for debate, discussion, and acceptance conveyed through visual work.
