(Winner 26). **There are many other studies that focus on other art forms
and their beneficial effects.
There are some who discredit the function and positivity of art, of
course. I found much of this negative feedback on the subject of modern art
and how it has destroyed the once glorious position of art. These people
generally mean the splatter paint canvases and the chaotic nature of new
music genres; it doesnt please these people and with this disgust, they rant
on the internet on how art has failed us and so on. Other anti-art bloggers
tell about how the Puritans condemned art and thought all visual/auditory
decor and beauty was vain. We have to understand that we arent in the
17th century and aesthetic is a massive part of our culture and society. In
fact, all the people writing anti-art content are creating as they rage! They
are expressing themselves and that like I said, is the most basic
explanation/definition of art.
I want to convince you that you should go a little out of your comfort
zone , if you arent an artsy person and create something, participate in an
art form. Whether it be dancing, strumming the guitar, painting, reciting
poetry, and the countless other forms, do it and reap the benefits of being a
human with an imagination.
When you think about art, you may immediately associate it only with the
famous fine arts such as a Greek style sculpture or a Monet impression. I
want to redefine art as something that ranges in outcomes, some
Art is the one activity of man where he can make himself most sure of being a conditioner, the one
capability of man where he has to reckon least with conditions, where he is able to show that he can
change things around as he wants to, where things (color, sound, wood, etc.) become the slaves of
man and where they as things have the least to say--where man, more than at any other time, feels
himself to be the master. Through art man has the possibility of all this power over things
( Heinrich Blcher)
I don't know that anyone does completely without art, if we remember that music and dancing are art, as well as visual art. And we
see visual art in advertisements and in our places of religious worship and in constantly on the internet. The arts are so woven into
our existence that I'm not certain that "important" is the correct word. I think perhaps that "essential" is the word that is more
appropriate.
The arts travel with our humanity. They alway have, and I suspect, always will. They express parts of us that words are inadequate to
express and they bind us together in ways that we need. They operate on the level of the heart and the soul, and we cannot do
without them.
Art is self-expression Where art is outlawed, it bursts out at the seams Where art is suppressed, it flourishes Where art is
unexpected, even there it's discovered Where art is frowned upon, it bursts throughWhere art is encouraged, it declines
Others do not.
It is not possible for one not to have a set of thoughts one holds most dear
But as long as they are expressing thought, they are art forms
