B. Three-dimensional
Sculpture
Sculpture is another ancient visual art form that dates back to prehistoric
times. A sculpture creates three-dimensional visual images, traditionally
using materials such as clay, stone, ceramics, metals, or wood.
Famous classical sculptors such as Michelangelo and Myron favored
carving and casting techniques using marble and bronze. Many of the
most well-known sculptures in the world, such as ‘David’, ‘The Statue of
Liberty’, and ‘Manneken Pis’, use these materials. However, modern
sculptors have almost any object at their disposal to create a sculpture,
including metals, plastics, glass, or found objects. Contemporary
sculptors also have a wider variety of techniques at their disposal,
including welding, carving, assembling, or modeling.
Literature
While literature stands on its own as an art form and is one of the seven
different forms of art, it is also closely related to theater, poetry, film,
music, and the spoken word.
Architecture
Architecture is the art form you pass every day without realizing or fully
appreciating it as an art form. Architecture is the art of structures, and we
could reasonably date architecture back to the point when man first
created shelter. However, the more common perception of architecture
as an art form relates to just a handful of buildings that are particularly
beautiful or awe-inspiring.
Ancient feats of architectural design include landmarks like the Great
Pyramids, Rome’s Coliseum, Taj Mahal, Hagia Sophia, or Stonehenge.
Modern architectural marvels include the Eiffel Tower, Sagrada Família,
Sydney Opera House, Louvre, Burj Khalifa, and the Guggenheim
Museum.
Cinema
Cinema is the newest of the seven forms of art. Created just over a
century ago, cinema may not have the length of history as the other art
forms on this list, but it has quickly become one of the most popular.
Movies are the projection of a three-dimensional world onto a two-
dimensional screen, an art form that engages our audible and visual
senses. Like literature, movies tell a story, but they do so with both
spoken word, visual art and more.
Music
Theater
Theater is an art form where the artist combines both visual art and
dramatic performance. Over time the definition of theatre has broadened
to include performance art. Usually, it includes different art forms where
the artist or artists present or perform their art on a stage.
Theater has been a part of culture since the Ancient Greeks in the 6th
century BC. Theater has since become one of the most popular sources
of entertainment. The broader performing arts include theater and dance,
music, opera, circus arts, musicals, magic or illusion, mime, spoken word,
puppetry, and performance art. The traditional Greek classifications of
theatre: drama, tragedy, and comedy, still apply to many modern
productions.
