Help sustain a centuries-old
process
For hundreds of years, the arts have
relied upon the partnership and largesse of individual, government,
and corporate sponsors for the means to make artists’ works
available for all to see and enjoy. This is especially true for
aviation art, which links the experiences and knowledge of aviators
and technical specialists with the public at large. Without sponsor
support, aviation artists would not have been able to excite and
inform industry and the general public to the extent that they have
over the past century.
In World War II, aviation art helped
focus national purpose and portrayed historic events happening far
away. During the Cold War and the Space Race, aerospace art
explained new technology and inspired excitement and visionary
thinking to the public at large, especially students. As commercial
aviation grew to an international industry, aviation art helped
introduce this new transportation medium as a safe and friendly way
to travel.
Patronage
benefits the general public and professional community
| E d u c a t i o n. Aviation art documents historical
events and technological achievements for all to appreciate,
now and in the future. Aviation art also helps to
explain the complexities of how technology functions and the
complex interactions of natural and industrial processes. |
P a r t i c i p a t i o n. Aviation art translates the complex
and the obscure into a language that the general public can
understand and relate to. This bridge of images
allows the many to share the experiences and emotions of the
few who have “been there, done that.” |
I n s p i r a t i o n. The visions and excitement portrayed
by aviation art have inspired many to look more closely at
aerospace as a career or a pastime. Excitement about
aerospace leads to a better appreciation of the vital need
for better education in math, science, and technology. |
The Founders of the ASAA understood
the important contributions that aviation artists could offer to
society when they established the fundamental guiding principles of
the organization:
-
Strive for artistic quality and
authenticity in aviation and aerospace art
-
Enlighten the public on the
importance of documenting aviation, aerospace history, and
current events through art
