Some of us might think about Art frequently. You may play the guitar or piano. Some may to paint and draw or have some technological skills to design graphics or games. Art may be something you do all the time.But then some of us may not think about it much, yet still appreciate Art and can't imagine a world without it. We may see Art in the way Messi passes the football or in the way Bolt runs the 100m. We may see Art in the way a car is designed or in the fashion that we wear. Art is everywhere...
In this first journal blog, I would like to know how you experience Art. What does it mean to you?

ReplyDeleteIn my experience, art is in my everyday life. I always draw and play the guitar. I also have to select clothes or shoes to wear almost every day , and that is art that I experience almost every day.
I personally think that art means creativity. Many things that are made by man can be defined as art. For example, to create a bottle of water, producer have to use art in order to make the bottle beautiful and to attract consumers.
I like this... creativity and art are certainly related... when you see a kind of fashion or even product package, that is the creation of someone's artistic mind.
DeleteI describe art as everything that we are surrounded by and art can come in many different shape and form. There is no right or wrong in term of art, it could be your feeling, music, painting, or design. Each person does not have the same point of view toward certain object or topic. Judging is what people do but it does not mean that they are complete right or wrong.
ReplyDeleteFor me, I consider music as art, when I listen to the songs or rhythm; I can picture the story of the songs in my head. The sound of one note can be describing as many emotions; it can tell story weather its sadness, angriness, loneliness or happiness. I also have the passion to sing and it allows me to express my emotion and share it to other people. Mostly, I think that musicians have very emotional feeling when it comes to writing songs. It is very hard to make someone feel and understand their emotion that they put in the lyric and rhythm of a song and that for me is what I call art.

In the end, art is all around us it is depending on the people who see it. Sometimes people do not seem to know or care about something that is right in front of them. Every single one of us do agree or disagree at some point but in the end we do not really know the right answer because there is no right answer.
"There is no right or wrong in terms of art"... this is an interesting statement, as I believe many would disagree with you. We often debate about what is really art... on one hand, art seems to be a free expression, but I suppose it depends on who is experiencing it.

ReplyDeleteI think that art is one of significant things which is always related to our daily life. Personally, I like to read books and listen to musics and I think those things are art. People usually create new arts for satisfying their needs. For instance, people start to draw something when they want to release their stress. Sometimes, there is not an exact objective. They play piano because they just want to.
People choose art to color the world.
Thank you for this. It is true that it is often through art that we can best express ourselves... not like other forms of communication.

ReplyDeleteMost people might think that art is painting and drawing but in my opinion, it means more than that. It is a communicator because it is the ways to express what are you thinking and what is in your mind. In my experience, photography is one kind of art.
I think that taking photograph is not only the way to memorize the moments, but it is the way I can express my aspects, feeling and ideas through the photos. Different angles of taking a picture show different feeling in the photograph. Moreover, it can easily tell the story that the photographers try to communicate by using photograph.
It is amazing how slight changes in the aperture, lighting, angles, or frames can tell a very different story from moment to moment... this is certainly an ability of art that other communication doesn't have.

DeleteThere are not a direct definition or a clear figure to show what arts really are. They include in every single motion of everything. For instance, when individuals wave their hands, this can be one kind of arts; moreover, arts do not only exist with creatures. They can be man-made objects such as statues, pictures, or paintings. Music also was included to be one of arts. The ways that arts are created are from expressions and appearances. In my perspective, anything that can reach one of the senses (sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch) is Arts. It is obvious that arts easily approach to people all the time.
Art is a sensory experience. I like this. Does it have to be pleasant? Or can art repel us as well?
DeleteI believe that the perfection does not really exist. Everything have both sides, including arts. Neither in the brightest side nor the darkest one, everything must be somewhere in between. There is no guarantee that the famous paintings or sweet songs that got a lot of praises being impressed by everyone.

ReplyDeleteFrom my perspective, art mean the way that people use to express their feeling and their thoughts in alternative ways. It can come out as a piece of art work such as painting or music. Almost everything in our society is cover by art. Take for example, the design of the building, vehicles, and even the way people dress. Personally, the connection between me and art is through music. I like to listen to music most of the time because it relaxed me.
Art certainly is all around us, and we many take it for granted. Can you imagine a world without it. In places with less freedom, some arts like music are banned or restricted.

ReplyDeleteIn my perspective, art means everything to me, and I cannot imagine my world without art. Art can be defined in difference meaning which is depend on several thing such as opinions, feeling, and experiences. I experience art everyday in my life. For example, I communicate with other people by using language and gesture. I always listen to music and sing along while I am in the shower all the time. In my opinion, I think that art is very important, art can change the way people think and act. I love art in the way it is because sometimes it can be simple and it can be luxurious. In my free time, I usually enjoy looking at designing books and designing applications. Art is in my routine, and I believe that if people pay attention to art. It is surrounding around us. Your art might not be the same meaning as mine, but I strongly believe that art will be significant in a part of your life.
Art may not always be necessary, but it always colours our expression. Words are just words, but along with gestures and intonation and expression, the words come to life.

ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to art the first thing that came up to my mind is painting and portrait. Especially in the museums in Europe from the fact that most famous artists are come from Europe region. However, I realized that in fact art is all around my daily life including the way I arrange things in my room, specifically, how you place pillow on your bed can make your bedroom look nicer, the cloth I wear, and even the words I say for example if you have art in your words you can be attractive even though you are not beautiful or handsome. Therefore, I think art make the world a better place to live.
We often think about the art world in terms of "high" art and "low" art. This is a big debate in the art world between those prestigious pieces in museums and the popular culture we enjoy everyday. Is there a difference?

ReplyDeleteArt is in every movement of our lives. Art, in my opinion, is "creation" or being "creative". Art can be occurring anywhere. Music, dances, artworks are different types of art. Art is one of the ways that people use to express their thoughts and feelings. For example, every pieces of artwork has its own meaning and feelings. It can be sad or happy, depending on how people look at them. Some people might think that it's worthless, but there are some who think that it's very special to them.
Overall, art is very necessary toward my life. I think that I won't be able to live without art, especially music. I can't imagine my life without music. Music plays a big part of my life. Music motivates me to move on in life. "A life without music would be like a life in black and white" - Jeff Stinco
It seems that art is a very human thing that other species may not understand. Humans need it to express ourselves while I'm not sure other animals do.

ReplyDeleteOnce, art was one of the biggest hope in my life. When I was young, I attended many art competitions and academies to improve my art skills. This allowed me to express my emotions and feelings through art. For example, when I was uncontrollably mad, I started to put all of my emotion (anger) into art. I've created many art piece of my own. This also allowed me to become a creative person, unique as so as confident, since I've learnt how to express my feelings through art. Art is something that I see, or do frequently. Therefore, without art then the world will be boring and dull and there is a famous sentence that caught my eyes, which is "Earth without Art is just Eh". I strongly agree with the quote. Art is very important to me as it enabled me to become who I am today.

Thank you for this. Art is also a kind of therapy that can allow us to express our severe emotions and stresses when other forms of communication can't work.

ReplyDeletePersonally, I think that art is everywhere. Art can be something like music. It can make people who are experienced feel appreciate, or it may make them feel down. From my experience, many times that music rise my mood. For example, I usually express my feeling through music. When I feel disappointed, or depressed, good songs make me feel much better. Therefore, art means so much to me, and if there is no art exist in this world, I could not imagine how my life is going to be.
Its true that art is a kind of medicine in some ways... it can provide relief or distraction... or just entertainment when we need it.

ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I would like to indicate that art is everything in the world excepted natural things. Why? Because every stuffs need art in there. Human have to use art in order to create things. For instance, a sofa, a computer or a house, these need art. People have to think what shape they should be or what appearance they could have. Therefore, for my deeply personal perspective, art is everything no matter in the past, present or future. It will be what it is.

ReplyDeleteSome people might see art as music or painting, but I see art as a journal. Art is the way you understand life, the creativity in your mind, and thee positive/negative though that pop into your head. Also, it is the creation of something that has no limits on it. In some points, you will see art as one part of your life no matter what it is.
The question is when is it okay to copy art. Some people might say that it is never okay to copy someone else idea and make it there own. In my opinion I have to say it is hard to tell when is it that people cross the line. I would have to say borrowing someone else idea is acceptable when they give credit. For example, fashion designers can get their inspiration from paintings. They can use the idea such as the color pallet, structure or the form of the painting to create clothing. This way from one good inspirational idea can lead to many different new idea. 5680693
