Why do we study Art? Artists show us new ways to see familiar things, and how to interpret new situations and events through various kinds of visual shorthand. This creation of visual language may be the artist's intention, or it may be a side effect of other purposes. Art is timeless and has many uses.Probably the first purpose of art is as a religious ritual. Art can also serve to commemorate an important event. Art has often served as propaganda or social commentary. It is common to see art being used to persuade people to some viewpoint, or to make us aware of some human condition.Art has many purposes. Some can be as simple as recording data visually, conveying intense emotion, capturing beauty of our world, and storytelling, In any case, art is to interpret the subject matter at hand. Although new subject matter has evolved, the human condition, nature, and events still continue to capture our minds.
