    THE ARTS

    Human100: Introduction to Humanities


    WHAT IS ART?

    ART comes from the Latin language “ars”


    which means skill or craft. It constitutes one of the oldest
    and most important means of expression developed by
    human beings and has been a part of every society
    across the globe.
    WHAT IS ART?

    The arts represent an outlet of human expression,


    usually influenced by culture, and driven by human
    creative impulse. Major constituents of the arts include
    literature – including poetry, novels and short stories, and
    epics; performing arts – among them music, dance,
    opera, theatre and film; and visual arts – including
    drawing, painting, and sculpting. Some art forms
    combine a visual element with performance (e.g. film)
    and the written word (e.g. comics).
    WHAT IS ART?
    From prehistoric cave paintings to modern day
    films, art serves as a vessel for storytelling and conveying
    mankind's relationship with its environment.

    definitions include spoken or sung texts.
    Literature can be classified according to whether
    it is fiction or non-fiction, and whether it is poetry or prose;
    it can be further distinguished according to major forms
    such as the novel, short story or drama; and works are

    features or expectations (genre).

    Performing arts are art forms in which artists use


    their body, voice, or objects to convey artistic
    expression—as opposed to visual arts, in which artists use
    paint/canvas or various materials to create physical art
    objects. Performing arts include a variety of disciplines
    but all are intended to be performed in front of a live
    audience.
