What
is the purpose of Art? That is a very
serious question for an artist, especially a young student in the Fine Arts, to
answer. Many understand art as realistic
rendering or modeling. Many would say it
is anything well done or crafted, like a finely prepared meal. Art is hard to define but if we first define
its purpose it might be more clear what it actually is. Arts purpose has always been to declare a
certain worldview, to establish the basis for building culture and
community. Art, at its pinnacle, is the
declaration of Truth artistically. What
do I mean by “artistically”? To begin to
answer that you must first understand the elements and principles of art, which
will take a lifetime.
