Hi,
Here comes another question; if art backend is not X11 specific, Can I use it 
on Windows?

  It's (deliberately) platform independent. All it needs is a buffer to
  render to (an implementation of XWindowBuffer, more or less). There are
  a few X11-specifics in the setup code. Grepping for "RDS" will show you
  where.
  
  (When there are more users of back-art, it might be good to try to make
  the abstraction a bit cleaner; for now, it's just a small amount of
  code, and without more users, it's hard to design a good abstraction.)
