What defines Art?
I think that what the artist has created defines art. It could be dance, it could be singing or it could be painting, but it is something that someone has a passion for doing. It also reveals themselves as artists. I think art is defined by the audience or by someone, but I don't think there is one fully clear definition of art.
Art can be defined differently by everybody, for example, according to internet research, art can be defined as
"the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful,appealing, or of more than ordinary significance. "
What is Art?
I think art expresses something what the artist has to say. Art has a meaning and value to what is expressed and emotional charge to it. A lot of art is targeted at a specific audience or created to reveal what the artist thinks or what the artist is trying to convey something.
Who defines Art?
I think that we define art. We all define art slightly differently and see different types of art and that it is not unusual that we define art differently than others.
Therefore, I do not agree when critics try to criticize a particular art piece because I do not think that it is their opinion is the only valued opinion for what art is or what it is not.
How can we identify Art?
Personally I think we can identify art when we realize that a person is trying to express or convey a certain emotion of thing that they are feeling or trying to express in different ways, such as painting, drawing, singing or dancing.
How do we know what good art is? And what criteria can we use?
I think we know what good art is because we all have different criteria for what "good" art is. For example for some "good" art is high detailed art that took about 18 hours to do, or for some "good" art is abstract art because they can see what the artist is trying to convey but others see abstract art as a splatter of paint what a five-year old kid can do.
Criteria for good art for me is that in some art works you can tell exactly what the artist is trying to show or say, or how much effort they have put into it, or the unique idea of what they have done.
What is the purpose of Art and why is it produced?
I think the purpose of art is to express how you are feeling, what you want to say or to convey. It is there to express what you may be to shy to say, or it is the way you need to function because it is your passion.
I think it is produced because some cannot imagine a world without art. For some art is a certain type of therapy session and they could not live without producing art.
