Art appreciation centers on the ability to view
art throughout history, focusing on the

cultures and the people, and how art
developed in the specific periods. ... Art
appreciation analyzes art using the methods
and materials, allowing people to make
connections to the context of art and the
interactions of societies.
Art is an expression made visible by a form. The expression
contained in the form is an attempt to translate the unnamed and
the unknown. Intrinsic to our existence as human is our quest to
create meaning, and art allows that process to take place.
Making meaning involves understanding our surroundings and

making our experiences. Art, at its root, is an expression and the
artist is an expresser, translating in order to create meaning. Art
expresses and translates, art acknowledges and reveals, art
transfers and art intervenes. Art is an expression, an expression
of feeling, belief and character. The simplicity of that sentence is
rather deceptive and seems tidier than its implications. Feelings,
beliefs, characteristics – these are what art expresses, although
often they are not easily distilled. Our lives as humans are full of
complications and complexities, and our thought and experience
feelings, beliefs and characteristics are reflective of these
complexities
1. Art has been created by all people
at all times, in all countries and it lives
because its well-liked enjoyed.
Naturally, arts linger on particularly if
it is popular and love by the people.
§Example: the works and writings of
Dr, Jose Rizal and the movie, The Ten
Commandments
2. Art involves experience. In order
to experience something, you have
to make use of your five senses.
Hence, there can never be
appreciation of art without having
experienced it.
3. Art is not nature; nature is not
art. Art is made by man and nature
by God. However, nature can be
enhanced by man. The enhanced
beauty and artistry of nature, then,
can be classified as an art.
4. Art is cultural. Art is a work of
humans and anything that has been
created by human is part
of culture. Art becomes cultural
when it depicts people’s way of
life, religious practices, mores and
traditions, etc.
5. Art is a form of creation. Art is
something that is created with imagination
and skill and that is beautiful or that
expresses important ideas or feelings. As
it is said, human is the creator of art. No art
can be created without human which, uses
his/her imagination and creativity to
produce art. According to the word’s most
basic definition, an artist is simply a
person who creates art.
6. Art is subjective. Henceforth, it cannot be
measured by its significance or the level of
skill with which it is created. Its subjective
nature makes arts only measurable quality is
whether or not it exists.
§Example: “beauty is in the eye of the
beholder” meaning, every individual has
his/her own perception and/or interpretation
about the subject. It would never be the same
for every individual.
The visual arts are art forms that
create works that are primarily
visual in nature, such as ceramics,
drawing, painting, sculpture,
printmaking, design, crafts,
photography, video, film making and
architecture.
The performing arts are arts such as music, dance,
and drama which are performed for an audience. It
is different from visual arts, which is when artists
use paint, canvas or various materials to create
physical or static art objects.
a time-based art form that typically features a live
presentation to an audience or to onlookers (as on
a street) and draws on such arts as acting, poetry,
music, dance, and painting.
a type of poetry that is performed for an
audience. The poetry can be written in
advance, or it can be spontaneously
composed while the performance is in
progress. It is different than just reading
poetry aloud that has been written for the
printed page.
the art and technique of designing and
building, as distinguished from the skills
associated with construction. The
practice of architecture is employed to
fulfill both practical and expressive
requirements, and thus it serves both
utilitarian and aesthetic ends.
a performing art form consisting of
sequences of movement, either
improvised or purposefully selected. This
movement has aesthetic and often
symbolic value. Dance can be categorized
and described by its choreography, by its
repertoire of movements, or by its
historical period or place of origin.
An art film is typically an independent film,
aimed at a niche market rather than a mass
market audience. A movie made primarily for
aesthetic reasons rather than commercial
profit, often of an experimental nature or
having an unconventional or highly symbolic
content, aimed typically at a limited audience.
Literary art comes from two words namely art and literature.
Art means the expression of human feelings that have
beauty value. While literature is an absorption word that
comes from Discuss Sanskrit which means guide, guidance
or order in the form of text or voice. So it can be concluded
that, literary art is actually a writing or story that comes from
the expression of human feelings that have beauty values.
Literary or literary art is something in the form of writing or
stories that have artistic and cultural value that displays the
beauty of speech and language to convey certain meanings.
art of writing literary works such as poems, novels, plays,
memoirs, or biographies.
Theatre is a collaborative art form
which combines words, voice, movement
and visual elements to express meaning. ...
Theatre is about the examination and
resolution of fundamental human issues, and is
built on understanding and presenting
interactions between people.
The applied arts are all the arts that
apply design and decoration to
everyday and essentially practical
objects in order to make them
aesthetically pleasing. ... Applied arts
largely overlaps with decorative arts, and
the modern making of applied art is
usually called design.
