"Art
is the product or process of deliberately arranging
items (often with
symbolic significance) in a way that influences
and affects one or more of the
senses,
emotions, and
intellect. It encompasses a diverse range of
human activities, creations, and modes of
expression, including
music,
literature,
film,
photography,
sculpture, and
paintings. The meaning of art is explored in a
branch of
philosophy known as
aesthetics, whereas disciplines such as
anthropology,
sociology and
psychology analyze its relationship with humans
and generations. Traditionally, the term art
was used to refer to any skill or mastery. This
conception changed during the
Romantic period, when art came to be seen as "a
special faculty of the human mind to be classified
with religion and science".[1]
Generally, art is made with the intention of
stimulating thoughts and emotions." Source
