BLOG#3 THE HISTORY OF ART

Thursday, June 2, 2011
When we think of art what comes to mind? For some it may be painting's for other's it could be dancing or a sculpture. The beauty about art is that it can be perceived in so many different ways.

Art started over 40,000 years ago, it was a way for people to express their thoughts, feeling's and beliefs through their sculpture's, painting's, or architectural work. We might as well say that art has existed for almost as long as humankind from early pre-historic art to contemporary art. The oldest art objects in the world are some tiny drilled snail shells that was discovered in a south african  cave. Since then many ancient civilizations like the GREEKS and the ROMANS have been influenced as well as fascinated by the craft that artists in the past possessed.


While art itself emphasizes on the individuality of ones creativity its history over the year's has been able to develop and influence many people across the globe.
