Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

To introduce the Arts as an area of knowledge, I'd like you to pontificate on the following:

1. What is art?

2. Can it be a painting, play, theatre, music, poetry, literature, photography?

3. Where do we draw the line? (What is art to one, may not be to another)

4. Can you define what is a ‘work of art’?

5. What do you expect to see in art?


6. What do you think is the purpose of art?

7. What is truth in art?

We're going to leave art as a little appetiser here. In class next Thursday I'd like you to bring in your choices for presentations and for essays. We're going to spend the next lesson researching for both.
