Wondering what art is like asking what is life, so great is the extension of the conceptual and practical human activity that operates under the name of artistic activity.
Today, in this hi-tech, explain what art is even more diffcile.
So it seems appropriate to focus attention on the outcome of these activities, ie the artistic product: it springs from the activity of a creator, the artist , who then submits it to the opinion of users who attach value judgments to that product.
The artworks are created to survive their creator and eternal spiritual values they contain, resulting from the artist's personal experience about the social reality in which he lives or has lived or will live.
The works of art, therefore, have the important task of being a common source of evidence of temporal values that have become eternal.
Bearing in mind that art is not just about purely cultural sphere, but each of us live with on a daily basis (see our clothes, the objects we use for our jobs ....) any attempt at definition is almost impossible since there are many sciences which have as their object of study this activity (art history, psychology, sociology, aesthetics, anthropology ,....).
The artistic product comes from a creative act of the artist, who by ancient craftsman par excellence engineering has gone through in history, all walks of life. This historical path led to the emergence of many "tapas" on the figure of the creative, the one who possesses the uncanny ability to create from scratch an "object" that there is now and not before, the result of an idea born in a place dark, mysterious, of his mind.
In the Upper Paleolithic man develops intellectual capacity of its own species. hours and subsequently graphic pictorial art activities that seems to have a communicative purpose and exorcism.
The Rise of the birth of man's cultural determines, in turn, built from its own culture within a dynamic process that leads down to us an experience of life along the ancient but ever new and renewable if the art itself as a Universal intrinsic characteristic of the human species.
The artistic product is born from a creative act, which always involves the concept of subversion "creativity".
The word creativity always includes the character of unpredictability, that is a thought process that totally escapes the influence of deterministic laws and the concept of "beauty" modern beauty is that which is spontaneous, original and generates individual responses.
When the fruit of this creative act is attributed also value judgments, it becomes art.
