At the beginning the article talks about the Western art history about the reference to the Classical Art through the artist Marc Quinn. However, since the emergence of the modern art, the artists began to doubt about the Classical Art, which directly led to the decline of reference to the Classical Art. However, in today's art world there are still some artists who draw from the essence of the Classical Art such as Marc Quinn and John Currin. Their works lie in the fact that both these impression-ancient and modern, mythical and realistic-continue after the initial surprise to exist in tandem, resulting in a wonderful series of paradoxes. This article gives their examples to inspire some artists and the young persons who still have a strong interest in the Classical Art how to learn from the forms of the Classical Art to express today's problems we concern, In addition, we can also understand because of the different starting point how much visual impact the work can make.
