How can someone own an artform?

I really fail to see how my location of birth can have any impact whatsoever on my appreciation of, and skill with, an artform. If anyone cares about anything other than that, they don't have any idea of culture's worth anyway.

Edit: Culture is a far, far, far broader and more intricate thing than can be divided along national lines anyway.
