ART
We call lots
of things art today. We use the term visual arts o describe the arts we can
see. Painting sculpture,and architecture have long been the major visual arts
in Europe and North America. Today, we include photography, furniture, pottery,
jewelry, and many other arts and crafts among the visual arts.
Sometimes we
speak of the fine arts-other forms of expressions that appeal to our sense of
beauty and form. This brouder category includes literature, music, and dance,
in addition to the visual arts.
Painting sculpture,and
architecture have all been around for a long time. We tend to consider them the
most important forms art.
People painted
and drew on the walls of caves during the stone age, as long as 32,000 years ago.
They made pictures of animal-probably the animals they hunted for food.
Over time,artists
started painting different subjects. They Painted landscapes, portraits of
people, religious figure, and still lives (fruit, flowers, and other objects
that don’t move).
Sculpture is
as old as painting. Thr first sculptures we know about are small human figures.
The human figure remained the most popular subject of sculpture until the 20th
century. Today,sculptors are concerned more with the materials of
sculpture than with subjects. They even make sculptures out of junk and other
objects they find lying around.
