So for my next post I have decided to I guess in a way discus this. First the Definition of art. :
1. Human effort to imitate, supplement, alter, or counteract the work of nature.
2.
a. The conscious production or arrangement of sounds, colors, forms, movements, or other elements in a manner that affects the sense of beauty, specifically the production of the beautiful in a graphic or plastic medium.
b. The study of these activities.
c. The product of these activities; human works of beauty considered as a group.
3. High quality of conception or execution, as found in works of beauty; aesthetic value.
4. A field or category of art, such as music, ballet, or literature.
5. A nonscientific branch of learning; one of the liberal arts.
So here are just a few of the examples/ definitions for art on http://www.thefreedictionary.com/art.
Humans have always had an urge to recreate what we see, in our own image, in some way, shape, or form. It has been this way for centuries.
Now art isn't just recreating what we see into paintings, drawings, or sculptures. No art can be a reproduction of sound, created for any instrument, art can be a sensation or feeling in an interpretive dance, art can be possibly anything in the world that you want to label it to be.
There is no limitations on WHAT art is. Because really there are no boundaries. Art, like beauty, is in the eyes of the beholder.
