Every human activity gets meaning in terms of its relation to the culture and history of humanity. An investigation of the relationship between art and culture can best be understood in terms of the general nature of human activities. No human activity can be seen in isolation and it is this correlation among the various human activities and the culture they belong to, that gives meaning to culture as well as the human deeds. In this context, we may investigate the relation between art and culture and understand the pertinent correlation that exists between them. It is, therefore, most essential to find meaning to arts in relation to the culture that plays behind the artistic works, that is to say, art is essentially related to culture. In an attempt to establish the real nature of this correlation between art and culture, let us engage in an analytical study of the artworks of Pheidias which may be most efficiently comprehended in terms of their cultural context. In this paper, the essential correlation between culture and art is analyzed focusing on the Pheidias artwork in a cultural context. An investigation of Pheidia’s artwork in the cultural context of Greece serves as the best illustration of the relation between art and culture. In the three parts of this paper, we investigate this essential and evident relation between art and culture. In this attempt of finding out the remarkable correlation between art and culture we first analyze the artwork of Pheidias and its history. Then we will find the essential correlation this art has got with the cultural context of Greece. The most significant result of this investigative analysis of the correlation between art and culture has been the finding that the artwork of Pheidias was partly the result of a supporting cultural environment, especially the contribution of his instructor Agelades and the philosophical environment created by the philosophical giant Socrates. That is to say, we can very well establish the relation between art and culture by an investigative analysis of Pheidias Artwork in the cultural context of Greece. In order to fully understand the relationship between art and culture as it reflects in the artworks of Pheidias, it is important that we analyze one of the most significant works of this great artist. Thus, we can understand from an analysis of the statue of Athena which “is a marble copy of a bronze statue, presumably the Athena not wearing a helmet which Pheidias made for the Lemnians in the middle of the fifth century and which they dedicated as a votive offering on the Athenian acropolis. It is the figure of a mature young woman, looking down at a helmet which in the original she carried in her right hand and holding a spear erect in her left hand. She wears a heavy woolen garment that falls in severe folds to her feet, and aegis on her breast, while the thick curls of her hair are confined by a broad fillet. The effort for accurate representation is no less evident than in the statue just discussed. With increased knowledge and skill the artist has depicted this young woman as one might see her, a being instinct with life and strength; and the garment is represented almost literally, in a way that does not wholly conceal the full form of the body underneath.
