In my college years I took a course on aesthetics that morphed into the philosophy of art During the course I visited the Louvre, Parthenon, Academia. Brit National Gallery, Scotland’s National and a dozen others considering aesthetics and art. There is an important point I missed concerning the products of artisans though; emotion.
A friend provide a great definition of what art is this morning. I quote T. C.:
“Art is a form of creative expression that conveys emotions, ideas, ideas, and beauty through a variety of media and techniques. It can include various forms such as painting, sculpture, photography, music, dance, drama, literature, and film. Just like you are a physics teacher and you have accomplished something admirable in your field of physics. If you call it your artistic creation, your friends in your field will also regard it as art.”
