has changed as the world has strive to become more instagram where does it leave us that's coming up on arts and culture and a space ship on hard times blog areas once grand monument to communism finally gets a facelift. and later on be instinctive a theory a work of finnish artist read a line. welcome to arts and culture since instagram launched its app 10 years ago it's not just people's photos that have improved the real world has actually changed in order to look better in pictures now businesses and even cultural institutions are built around looking good in photos well back when the very 1st instagram was downloaded the app on october 6th 2010 the idea was just to post pictures of whatever was happening that instant looking back it almost seems naive. the 1st instagram post was blurry and not much to look at its instagram co-founder kevin smith strums dog kevin doesn't have to work anymore instagram is the world's largest function sharing website but 1st instagram with its filters was mostly seen as just a good way to improve pics taken on your phone now there are professionals at work . restaurants know the power of the app. travels snapshots that are just too good to be true thousands of instagram is flocked to the same destinations. and museums now stage the kind of it's submissions that work well on the platform this pop art museum has only one purpose as a backdrop for selfies. today instagram has a 1000000000 active uses and the app has helped give rise to a new job profile to influence our models to be more perfect than ever before instagram queen kylie jenner is the platforms front runner with 197000000 subscribers some have made fortunes using the app even cats and dogs can be superstars this little fellow for instance has some 10000000 followers instagram is the perfect environment for advertising and companies are happy to take advantage of that the search for the perfect picture by surprise surprise the most successful of them all and. why and i'm hoping my colleague michael krueger can explain that one mike or what's going on here that was a campaign and the aim of that was just to be better than kylie genest last post and they achieve this goal with more than 53000000 likes are there absolutely. is this prime example. pull for the superficial instagram willed she is too much of everything looks like the perfect version of a woman bots in a comic if you know what is real and ok at the initiators of the campaign just wanted to print out the precious social media triggers to normal people with normal life normally shapes with an audience every week or so we know that there is this very superficial side of instagram with models an unattainable body is i am on there actually because a lot of my favorite artists are on their art institutions comedian so it's not all superficial absolutely not they are really some very interesting and very extraordinary people on instagram who are making fun of this superficial instagram will for example the comedian celeste barba and she has millions of follow us with her parodies. yet you see i think of of those kind of taking other photos but this is the artist cindy sherman and cindy sherman is doing her best to look as best bet as possible with with photos and photo editing and i know that she's one of the major artists who have become even more famous in the last 10 years the instagram have been out i do get the impression actually that the artists who do well on instagram there are to sort of made in a way that suited to a small screen or to the instagram world absolutely some artists develop their odd for instagram and some people go to exhibitions just to do a selfie and wouldn't go usually to museum we have the artist yeah you equal sama one of the most successful artist in the world right now and she is doing those dream waltz rooms where the people can go in and do their selfies and you wonder if that experience is still about the art or is it more about the vanity of the spectator well yeah kusama i have to say i liked her work before there were so few thank you so. which my could go will have to do this again in 10 years and see if instagram still around this will be very very interesting thanks so much now feaking of things instagram mobile if you go on instagram and you type in hash tag job you'll find about $14000.00 pictures of what looks like a concrete flying saucer perched on a mountain actually it's a ball garion monument that was meant to show the power of the country's former communist leader it took $6000.00 workers 10 years to build but just a few years after it was completed with the fall of communism the blues legend monument fell into ruin. a futuristic flying salsa a cold war relic in bogota his balcony mountains completed almost 40 years ago as a monument to socialism of the past 30 years it has fallen into total disrepair now it's been saved many bulgarians are still proud of the monument. the man which to me personally it's the highest achievement of buggering architecture in general i don't want to receive this at 1st sight that's why so many people come a 1000 people or we come here. took. the full communist party meeting place was adorned with 15 metre long frescoes depicting idealized scenes of socialist life what remains is in a desperate condition for the past 5 years a foundation has been collecting money to stop the decay work has now begun restoration experts from several countries are involved in the painstaking work. patricia makes are things like fire they've learned because you have so many things that in so many things but contribute and there's no want to return it and we are looking to buy we are trying to save as much as possible in the present state we're not integrating it's about that really. the work to preserve a part of the country's history is controversial the monument opened in long serving communist leader title should cause totalitarian state is clearly a glorification of communist ideology this has to be weighed against the immense international interest in the stunning architecture and the monuments history. that's a kind of story of tradition not only improve your area but all over. other european countries. monuments have been destroyed or to make forget the past but you can't forget the. obvious question. what's good monument good. many for a new feature. from a monument that was supposed to last forever now it's ephemeral sculptures out of fabric built just for a photo we're off to europe's

forest to me and she tries to bring that feeling into these photographs fabrics serve as her paintbrush. she looks for materials that will easily interact or blend in with the natural landscape. it is just my thing i need to follow. and i have been to many places and i know which chorus to different landscapes at her studio in helsinki she begins work on her next project but the basis for each photograph is the same there has to be another level not only that i have placed close to the landscape the enrich passed through gave me some kind of emotion and this emotion can be sadness fear or happiness but there has to be a deeper level in that. region part of a line and images often include secondhand clothing they awaken her curiosity about the former owner. i have always been interested
