About art
It can be difficult to give a definition of art. Art is a work that is being influenced by our emotions and senses, and that is influencing back our emotions. We can discover art due to the fact that people create it, even if they paint, sculpture or sing a song. All we can say that even our ancestors loved art, because there were found some artifacts dating 40000 years ago. So, the art developed as the time developed and different styles were created. For example Pablo Picasso's works are on the cubism styles. Usually paintings are made in this style, and because it is a modern art, the paintings are formed by geometric shapes. Some art styles developed more in particular countries, for example in France impressionism was a common style in the start of the 20th century. The paintings painted in this style are easy to recognize because they don't have many details, and usually landscapes are painted in this style. Claude Monet is one of the most famous artists that love to work on impressionism works of art.
Sculpture is also a form of art that has a great history. Sculpture objects are used to decorate some buildings. The most ancient sculptures are made from stone and the most expensive ones are made from marble. They are usually used to decorate the interior of houses, churches, etc. But the modern sculptures are made from different materials like wood, metal, and glue is used to combine pieces together. So, sculpture is a decorative work of art, but some sculptures are also used as public monuments. In present the artists love more abstract styles, like Davis Smith for example. James Peniston is one of the latest sculptors, he is the author of the "Keys to community". Sculpture in our days can be different from the one that we see in museums, because many kinds of materials can be used, even some old automobiles parts.
Photography is also a type of art, which had developed very much in the last decades, due to the fact that cameras have developed also. For example, to be a good artist in black and white photography, you need to have some skills, like you need to know how to use the light and the right texture. The key to a goof black and white photo is to know how to play with the contrast.
