Art is one of the ways that cultures maintain and propagate themselves into the future. From this point of view the autonomy of systems for tiling, weaving, decoration, border patterns and so on is a strong survival adaptation. Art is so important in the life of man and society that from the beginning of civilization tyrants have tried to control it. Keep the horizons of art no wider than the expectations of the rulers and you have kept a people under control. Art is an attempt to impart meaning (hopefully something insightful and nonobvious about the world) through craft.
Art is sometimes thought to include only certain groups of people and to exclude others. Art is frequently held to be a plaything of the wealthy because of the time required to pursure artistic endeavors and the cost of obtaining them. But art allows anyone to experience emotions and thoughts, because it now includes not only the artist's ideas but those that the viewer brings to the artistic work. It can be used to educate, propagandize, control, and convert people to new ways of thinking. This is effective because art uses our automatic responses to biological stimulation in novel ways.
Art is something that stimulates an individual's thoughts, emotions, beliefs, or ideas through the senses. It is also an expression of an idea and it can take many different forms and serve many different purposes. Art is the best way I have of figuring out what the world is trying to show me. Art is a learning and a teaching process, said Beuys. Its not an elite activity reserved solely for experts " its a part of everyday life, and its human nature to be creative.
Artist holds freedom of expression, and the viewers the liberty of interpretation. Contemporary art longs for the communication between spectators and artists. Artists like Nara and Aya Takano use children as a subject in almost all of their art. While Nara creates scenes of anger or rebellion through children, Takano communicates the innocence of children by portraying nude girls . Artists like Frida Kahlo and Damien Hirst are considered to be artists by the artworld under Dickies definition, but they are classified under different subsystems of art. Dickies art theory makes it possible the works of two very different artists to exist under the same heading of art, as well as much of what surrounds us in our everyday life.
Art is also used by art therapists, psychotherapists and clinical psychologists as art therapy . The end product is not the principal goal in this case; rather a process of healing, through creative acts, is sought.
Art is a vital part of the life of all people, not just for the wealthy. It allows men to make sense of the world around them and to communicate their ideas to other people, and therefore has to be accessible at some level. Because art is so important to intelligent life, I gave my children biographies of Picasso, Dali, and Pollock, written at a level that they could understand.
