What is art for?

People think that know what art is for, but when asked there is a profound silence. There are many answers… many depend on the mood of the people

Art may have 5 purpose

  1. To keep us hopeful – The beauty of art is the most attractive thing about art. Although most of the art is beautiful, some are more abstract types too. The prettiness of art worries serious people. Don’t people know the issues of the world at stake? The important point to note is that Prettiness is an emblem of hope.
  2. Art makes us less lonely – The world often required us to put on a cheerful facade, but beneath the surface, there is a lot of sadness and regret which we can’t express due to fear of seeming weird or looser. Art can reassure us of the normality of pain, that pain is a part of life. It also warns us against the commercial optimism of society.
  3. Art rebalances us – We are all pieces of a puzzle with many vital attributes in excess and many lacking. Art compensates us for the values which we lack. It is a concentrated dose of what we need in our lives.
  4. Art helps us to appreciate mundane stuff – Media constantly tells us what is beautiful or not. A very simple thing such as surgery of a patient can be an art, but most people fail to appreciate its beauty. Art returns glamour to its rightful place.
  5. Art is a propaganda of the artist – Most of the artists have a certain bias on how they perceive things. Art can be propaganda of the topics that may be neglected in day to life but has an important meaning for the artist

Good art is like meeting a person. It possesses different meanings on inside and outside. It is like a conversation with a stranger. Art is constant support for encouragement for our better selves.
