IN THE VISUAL ARTS The term eclectic was first used by . In the 18th Century , Sir Joshua Reynolds , head of the Royal Academy Of Arts in London , was one of the most influential advocates of eclecticism. In the sixth of his famous academical ''Discourses'' (1774), he wrote that the painter may use the work of the ancients as a "magazine of common property, always open to the public, whence every man has a right to take what materials he pleases." In 19th-century England , John Ruskin also pleaded for eclecticism. WESTERN ARCHITECTURE Eclecticism was an important concept in Western architecture during the mid and late 19th century, and it reappeared in a new guise in the latter part of the 20th Century . HIP HOP Much of . The fusion of samples from different genres has become very popular. Particularly in Turntablism , the branch of "dj-ing" devoted to one's use of such equipment as though it were any other. A diverse record collection, along with general know-how or "finesse" with the equipment given is seen as an object of status. In fact, the postmodernity of hip hop grows exceedingly, all the time. One such example of this might be the fact that Hip-hop DJ who is known primarily by the alias Cut Chemist has an album called The Audience's Listening , which was released in 2006 . Samples on this album range from Astrud And Gilberto Gil to Bruce Haack , and even Eric B. & Rakim . Picasso has often been cited as an eclectic artist because of his African-influenced Period .
