Historically, the 1st people to paint realism or in sculpture where Europeans hence Renaissance art period. People of the sun used abstract figuratives.

Unless you find something scholarly that disputes this claim ..
That still does not prove it is eurocentric in my opinion. A people can be the first to do something, does not then make it something that can only be attributed to them. The European change to realism was also their movement away from painting from a gods eye view and instead painting from the perspective of humanity.

I guess then that explains why I prefer art that is from a human perspective, because I am a person who is inclined to align with considering situations in a humanistic way instead of trying to perceive it in the way of the divine. So seeing art that depicts people from the view of the 4th dimension (cubism), or art that depicts humans as 2 dimensional beings like ancient Egypt, does nothing for me. I see humans as a human would, and the only cubism I like is the depictions of geometric objects in the 4th dimension (so higher dimensional mathematical equations depicted in art). When it comes to the actual depiction of objective reality, I like to see the beauty of people and objects as they are presented to us in our human experience.

So you don't have any proof that realism isn't eurocentric? Ok

No, I do not accept your assertion that it is Eurocentric because they seem to be the first ones to use it. For example, Rock music was started by Black Americans. Does that mean Rock music is Afrocentric or does the music transcend any particular culture and can be created by any person of any culture?

Remember, music is an art.

We talking bout visual art...not music. False equivalency.

No people of color was doing realism until Europeans did..that is a fact. Asian art, Native American art, Africans etc..all abstract

They are both an art, it is a valid equivalency. Something that grew out of one community is now being used by all. Just because it seems like Europeans started Realism, does not mean it is Eurocentric. Realism transcends all cultures, because creating art that depicts how something actually appears can be and is enjoyed by all cultures.

You want people to accept your style of art, yet here you are trying to down play another style of art just based on which culture may have started using it first. Your art could be disregarded in the same manner as you are attempting to disregard another style of art.

Edit: Also, no people were doing Rock music until Black Americans started it.

It is cause only they did it. Lol accept it. Cubism came from African Art. Realism came from Europeans..it's cool. I don't wanna paint eurocentrism art. So I paint Afrocentric art
