Well art in the Humanities encourages one to think, analyze and create more art. Anything that is perceived as "other" is devalued and sometimes destroyed. Hitler was infamous in labeling globally recognized artistic pieces "degenerate" art. There was even an art show of all of this "Degenrate" disppayed for the public. After the show, if the art could not be sold it was destroyed. Museums scrambled to buy this art. Many artists saw their work go up in flames
