I’ve been wondering lately about what exactly, or generally, to consider the definition of “ART”.

I am leaving the question open and collecting opinions, including my own, in an effort to coagulate thought and suggestion into a workable definition.

Oddly enough,since I have begun thinking about this, I have noticed references to this question in the media that I am usually exposed to. Pops up in newspaper, magazine, and even cartoon jottings. It’s uncanny but probably just that I am noticing these coincidences when I normally wouldn’t see them.
But to consider presentations of painting, metalwork, photography, mixed media,sculpture,printmaking, wood, ceramics, fiber, digital renderings, and glass; not to mention music, theater, dance, and building construction — we must consider the possibility for each to be an exhibit of artistic value either to us alone or to us all in general.

Let it roll around in your head for awhile and please let me know anything that collects in the corners,
