 Topic 1: DEFINING ART                                                                 

How do you define art? For many people, art is a tangible thing: a painting, sculpture, photograph,
dance, poem or play. Art is uniquely human and tied directly to culture. As an expressive medium,
it allows us to experience wide ranges of emotion, between joy or sorrow, or confusion and clarity.
It gives voice to ideas and feelings, connects us to the past, reflects the present, and anticipates
the future. Visual art is a rich and complex subject, and its definition is in flux as the culture around
it changes. This unit examines how art is defined, and the different ways it functions in societies
and cultures.
Why DO We Make ART?
•      Let`s Define ART first….
•      The expression of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as
painting or sculpture.
•      Works produced by such skill and imagination.
•      Art is any creative work of human being.
•      Art is a form of expressing oneself
•      Art resides in quality of doing; it is a process not a magic.
Art Appreciation define as…
•      Is the knowledge and understanding of the universal and timeless qualities that identify all
great art.. the more we appreciate and understand the art of different eras, movements, styles and
technique, the better we can develop, evaluate and improve your own artwork
•      Is the ability to interpret or understand man made arts  and enjoy them either through actual
work experiences with art tools and materials or possession of these works of art for one`s
admiration and satisfaction.  
Art Criticism
•      Is the discussion or evaluation of visual art?
•      Art critics usually criticize art in the context of aesthetics or the theory of beauty.
Art criticism and appreciation can be subjective based on personal preference
toward aesthetics and form or it can be based on the elements and principle of design and by
social and cultural acceptance
