GENERALITIES
This slide is about Arts as a group of disciplines.
The arts are a vast subdivision of culture, composed of many creative
endeavors and disciplines. It is a broader term than "art," which as a
description of a field usually means only the visual arts. The arts
encompasses visual arts, literature and the performing arts (music,
drama, dance and film, among others)

DEFINITION
Art is the product or process of deliberately arranging symbolic
elements in a way that influences and affects the senses, emotions,
and/or intellect.

THE VARIOUS ARTS

In the Middle Ages, ARTES LIBERALES (liberal arts) taught in medieval
universities as part of
the Trivium: (grammar,
rhetoric, and logic) and
the Quadrivium
(arithmetic, geometry,
music, and astronomy),
and the Artes
Mechanicae
(mechanical arts) such as metalworking, farming, cooking, business
and the making of clothes or cloth. The modern distinctions between
"artistic" and non-artistic skills did not develop until the Renaissance
