The marker of status becomes understanding the work instead of necessarily owning it, and the artwork remains an upper-class activity.

The end of the 20th century fostered an extensive debate known as the linguistic turn controversy, or the “innocent eye debate” in the philosophy of art. This debate discussed the encounter of the work of art as being determined by the relative extent to which the conceptual encounter with the work of art dominates over the perceptual encounter with the work of art.
