ART APPRECIATION: CREATIVITY,
IMAGINATION AND EXPRESSION

Introduction
 
Art or creating a work of art does not only entails
beauty. If all art works convey the same aesthetic
objects, what set them apart from one another? It
does not only take an artist to create art. To produce a
work of art, there must be creativity, imagination and
expression. It is time for you to unleash your creativity
and imagination. Are you ready? Let’s get started.

Read and Ponder

When you looked at Mark Rothko's No. 6, Violet, Green

and Red painting and you feel disconnected, don’t worry,
most people don’t get it at first either. That is why you are
here. Mark Rothko's No. 6, Violet, Green and Red painting
is one of the most expensive paintings in the world.
According to the Business Insider, its price tag is $186
million when it was sold last August 2014. Jean Paul Sarte
said that depicting a different perspective of the world is
what a creative art does. Therefore, to develop your sense
of appreciation can help you understand what the artist
wants you to see and understand. You cannot appreciate
something that you do not understand.
There are different types of arts as a form of expression
according to Caslib, Garing and Casaul (2018). These are the
following:
 
Visual Arts
Film
Performance Arts

Architecture
