[QUOTE="nedjer, post: 5643137, member: 83796"] I have the most valued strictures of a school of art as the creation of the 'Great Work' and the encoding of function into design, i.e. the sets of rules and language the art encapsulates or elaborates. I've linked to frivolous examples - not entirely kid friendly though all available in a church or public museum/ gallery - but art seems full of rules and language deliberately structured to offer different interpretations to different audiences.
