FUNCTION OF ART

 Function of Art
When one speaks of function, one is practically talking about
the use of the object. An inquiry on the function of art is an
inquiry on what art is for. When it comes to function, different
art forms come with distinctive functions. There is no one-to
one correspondence between an art and its function. Some
art forms are more functional than others.

 “...function is so important that it has usurped
the name of the art on the identification of
individual works”
The name of the art basically points toward the direction of the product or its function.

 On the other end of the spectrum, one can only think of painting and literature as
forms of art that have the least to do with purely practical values. When one examines
and thinks of painting or a work of literature such as a poem or a novel, one looks at
the value of the art in itself not because of what it can do and benefit us.
