One of the factors of rhetorical analysis is audience. I watched a film in a previous class where an artist used obscene materials to create art. She even went as far as using her bodily fluids to decorate a canvas. The entire time the film was playing the class kept making faces and whispering about how "weird" it was. Although I personally also thought that using bodily fluids to create art is a bit on the edge the film showed many other artists and historians who thought it was a fascinating idea. They said it created a unique and original masterpiece. I guess the way an audience views and interprets a work of art integrates that persons background.
