TYPES OF ART

There are various types of art practiced by the people with extra talent. It is a common observation that people excelling in different kinds of art are supposed to be the gifted ones and their ability to put their thoughts through various art forms keeps them apart from the crowd. Passion and skill automatically come in mind with the art. Painting, writing, sculpting, acting and dancing are some of the popular types of art that are practiced by the people as hobby and profession as well.

All types of art have a wonderful history behind them. This history is actually the source that gives rise to present shape of art that we see today. Painting is one such art that dates back to the prehistoric times. Canvas used to be the walls of caves where people used to paint to communicate the hidden messages. Painting is much older than the discovery of languages. Some countries like China still use language that mostly consists of sign and shapes instead of words.

When the language came into existence, man started developing manuscripts. Language became the mode to communicate thoughts. Writing books, poems and lectures are some of the ways to express thoughts. Writing is considered to be one of the most widespread methods to express thought. This belongs to the category of those types of art that are the prerogative of intellectuals. Again, writing needs talent and readers too. World is unimaginable without books which are the product of a writer’s talent.

All types of art are incomplete without the audience. Art is a way to communicate and if the audience is not there, then that poses danger to the existence of art. Hence, art needs propagation to exist and flourish. All types of art need a platform. Exhibitions, cultural and dance shows, concerts and debates are some of the platforms that are helpful for artists to reach to the audience.
