THE ARTS

"The Arts," as a term, has an interesting history. During

the Middle Ages, The Arts were very scholarly, limited
to seven categories and they did not involve creating
anything for people to look at.
 THREE CATEGORIES OF ARTS

• Auditory Arts
• Performance Arts
The contemporary world is an ever-changing
mix of social and political changes.

conflicts.
 VISUAL ART
• Visual Arts are those creations that
we can see rather than something
like the auditory arts, which we hear.
• Visual Arts is a modern but
imprecise umbrella term for a
broad category of art which
includes a number of artistic
disciplines from various sub-
categories.
