This work is evolved around a question whether there is a freedom of expression in the 19th- 20thC art world when the art creation is impacted by political turmoils or is subjected to monetary constraint? Artistic expression is a gifted talent and should be let out freely as a continuation of naturalistic principle. Instead of setting an anatagonistic stance between art and social movements, this research article finds art that pertains political and commercial elements as a modern form of aesthetic transcendentalism, since it has successfully merged historical movements, modern day political and social ideologies, as well as commercialized market phenomenon into the format of artistic illustration. This holistic inllustration gives a unique point of view based on artists life path; it communicates and transforms peoples perception through visual language. Whether a work from Muhammed Sami, a portait of post-WWI German veteran, or a consumer packaged good in Andy Warhols paint, these artworks manifest their artistic value for theyve recounted the artists uniquely analytical and personal point of view. The comparative studies of artworks post-WWI in Germany and post-modernist countercultural movement in the U.S. and Western Europe gives detailed analysis.
