Art styles by different British artists

British art: how Britain has influenced different forms of art on a large scale.


A well-known form of art in the UK that you can find in every city and large town are plays and musical productions. These productions can be greatly varied, from epic dramas to light hearted comedies or perhaps pantomimes. The diverse nature of this type of art might be why it is so well-known, there is usually some thing for anyone’s personal preference. There is a top variety in terms of performances too, from high-end locations in the West End, like the stage productions by Sally Greene, to smaller productions by childhood groups or educational institutions. Experiencing a more unknown perform or musical in a charming small location can be equal to going to watch a traditional perform in one of the bigger venues in London. What is unquestionable even so, is that Britain has had an enormous effect on this type of art; from Shakespearean favourites to the spectacular number of modern British playwrights and producers. There are sometimes small local teams as well, that will integrate anybody in their shows, so producing a local community feel and they will often collect cash for various charities.

Music is likely the most interacted with art form of them all, and part of that is due to the fact there is a lot of it out there, and much of it is founded by British artists or songwriters. Whilst many people think of the US as the main player in English language music, Britain has founded a significant range of great music as well. As with every art form there is a great deal of scope and variation in the art, and that is reflected by British producers such as Brian Eno, who has a wide range of various music genres in his discography. Music is ever changing and producers like the one pointed out have helped to produce new art forms. You can watch plenty of British acts at festivals around the world or at one off gigs in venues all around the UK, finding tickets to a few of the most sought after might be challenging so finding events in advance is seriously crucial.
