What Is Art?

I definitely agree with the statement that art should elicit feeling, whether it be positive or negative. That means that psychological harm can be a product of art...I suppose that the main purpose should not be only to harm, though.

Art's also open to interpretation, and should allow you to think. It should be something that triggers some sort of emotion or thought. It should allow you to express internal ideas, and let you "express the unexpressable".

Art is an escape from daily life. Whatever it is, it's an escape from reality. We all want that sometimes, don't we?
