Art : All The Best Free Flash Games Relating To Art

Arts are so numerous that we can definitely not list them here all. We will try to talk of the major arts and be as succinct as we can. But let's say first that arts are the expression of an artist's emotion and talent through a work that combines estheticism and creativity.

Painting and music might be the oldest kind of an artistic expression. We found painted walls from prehistoric times, while we believe that percussions and singing were also very early invented to express peoples' feelings. Painting has come through many artistic movements and took a major turn during Renaissance time when perspective was invented.

Sculpture is also very old, but Italian sculpture of the Renaissance remains the most appreciated in museums. Ancient Greece sculptures had inspired it though, but most of this period's works have been destroyed in the course of time and wars. Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci remain one of the greatest artists in the world, though they were rivals at their time (15th and 16th c.)

Architecture must be cited there as well. In fact, it was considered as a science and people who made it were called engineers for a long time. However, great artist like Le Corbusier have proved architecture to be more than a science but an art that could mix aesthetic with a research on the space.
