Outline of art

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Many artistic disciplines involve aspects of the various arts, so the definitions of these terms overlap to some degree. The term art also refers to the physical forms produced or performed using those skills, such as a sculpted figure, a poem, or a piece of music.
