What is art? There is no standard answer to what art is, but I think it is an interesting topic to discuss. In my opinion of view, I consider that art is a language that starts a conversation. Not only does art trigger a conversation between an inspector and an artwork, but also bridge the communication between different eras or different cultures. Mona Lisa is a work of art that represents how people in Renaissance think and how they view the art. They might value art an excellently detailed painting that contains some meaning. On the other hand, Composition II In Red Blue And Yellow represents how people pursue the original form of art and how artists try to figure out how art is. Moreover, the art is not only concern about the artists and artwork, but it also represents how people are in the age and the culture. For instance, ancient Japanese artists focus on the bowl or some items used in the ceremony on specific situation that required a particular principle to do it, like drinking tea. Another example is some native African cultures see masks a priceless item used in an event. The mask would be meaningful only in an event. I think the question of what art is can't be answered easily, but we can taste it, feel it, try to understand it. In this way, we can open a conversation about what we are, what we think of ourself. Thank you for your reading.
