"Is music the greatest form of art for everyone or does it depend on the person? If a person is more connected to a different activity can it provoke the same feeling?"
Art is defined as "the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance. " Art is typically thought of as visual arts such as paintings, auditory arts such as music, performing arts such as theatre, and linguistic arts such as poetry. Yet, art is not limited to these subjects. One could argue that many things besides these lie under the category of artistic. What is it that makes something artistic? Anything that emitts emotion through an aesthetic medium is considered art in my book. I've only been horseback riding once in my life, but I can see why one would think it to be artistic. You are one with another creature and I assume it makes you feel closer to nature. Yes, it does depend on the person, if something feels beautiful to you than it is art in a subjective sense. Do what inspires you.
Another definition of art is any specific skill and its application. Anything can be an art if someone is good enough at it. Someone who is funny could be considered a comidic artist. Artistry isn't always a positive thing, an example is a con artist.
Question: What makes something art or an art?
