Abstract

The development of Tibetan contemporary art, which is divorced from the traditional Buddhist significance, faces many problems, including the common problems of contemporary art and the problems that only occur in Tibetan contemporary art. Because of their unique cultural background, Tibetan people do not accept open contemporary art and depart from traditional forms, and they have their own aesthetic standards for art. Tibetan contemporary artists are in line with the world and create advanced contemporary art works. However, when creating works, even excellent artists will use the wrong images under the complex cultural background of Tibet. This paper analyzes the problems from three aspects of Tibetan contemporary art: openness, pluralism and social responsibility, and then analyzes the results accordingly. It is found that if Tibetan people can be more inclusive and Tibetan artists can pay more attention to the cultural connotation of their works, Tibetan contemporary art will develop better.
