ABSTRACT
The theological correspondent to the global internationalization of art is a significant geographical and cultural expansion of the discourse concerning God, to which the ecumenical movement and third-world theology, feminist theology and ecological theology have contributed. In step with the accelerating development of cultural pluralism and the increasing social inequality, late modern visual arts are getting rid of the heritage of colonialism. Today the terms 'ethno-art', 'third-world art' and 'world art' cover artists from the economically repressed regions and artists who approach the culturally destitute from the perspective of the former rulers. Artists contribute to their people's search for identity, and they also search for new forms of encounters with artists and viewers from other regions. Rulers and ruled slowly, creatively and painfully leave behind the roles that history has imposed on them. World art objects, especially those that have been created in an ethno-political dynamic context, are characterized by equivocalness.
