What is Art?

Art is about of human creative skill, it creative in visual form such as painting, drawing, sculpture and so on related with art. The definition of art has evolved over time and varies based on context, anything can in fact be art, and the term continues to evolve. Art has been defined as a vehicle for the expression or communication of emotions and ideas, a means for exploring and appreciating formal elements for their own sake, and mimesis or representation. Art at its simples, is a form of communication. It means whatever it is intended to mean by artist herself, and this meaning is shaped by the materials, techniques, and forms of the art, as well as the ideas and feelings it engenders in the viewer. Anything can in fact be art, and the term continues to evolve. (Boundless)

How best to define art is still regularly debated art is still regularly debated. Many books or journal articles have argued over even the basics of what we mean by calling something art. Theodor Adorno claimed, in 1969, “It is self-evident that nothing concerning art is self-evident”. Furthermore, it is clear that even the basic meaning of the term art has changed several times over the centuries, and is continuing to evolve during the 20^th century as well. Most people would not have considered the depiction of a Brillo Box or a store-bought urinal to be art until Andy Warhol and Marcel Duchamp, respectively, placed those objects in the context of like an art gallery, which then associated these objects with a way that art could be defined.
