ART APPRECIATION: ART VS NON-ART SIR PAOLO TENCHAVEZ DEFINITION AND MEANING BASICS  from Latin: ars The expression or application of WHAT IS ART? human creative skill and imagination, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power. (?)  WHAT ABOUT THE ARTIST? Artist as Creator -To be like or an instrument of God -Create comes from Kreas (flesh). Hinduism: Artist have the gift of Dar’san -Art comes from illumination. INTENSION TO CREATE ‘ART’ When we talk about intention, we must make a distinction between art and non-art. Non-artistic communication tends to produce some specific emotional response. In a horror film, for instance, the intention is to produce fear, which will later be relieved. But in art, the intention is to give people material to create their own thoughts and emotions. ORDINARY CULTURE Pass on behavior and traditions throughout generations through Instinct and Physical Experience SYMBOLIC CULTURE Pass on behavior and traditions throughout generations through the invention of things that exist entirely in the realm of symbols. ORDINARY OR SYMBOLIC CULTURE? ORDINARY OR SYMBOLIC CULTURE? ORDINARY OR SYMBOLIC CULTURE? ORDINARY OR SYMBOLIC CULTURE?
