Philosophers and Writers view on Art

According to Leo Tolstoy, a well-known Russian novelist,


“Art is a means of union among all men, a means of
communication.”

St. Thomas Aquinas also believes that “art is the direct


opposite of practical.” He said that “the artist may be
immoral, and yet his work may be good.”

On the other hand, Aristotle thinks that “art is the right reason
for making things.” He also believes that “art has no other
end but itself, and that all arts are patterned on nature.

Art is an act, an idea or a product that changes an existing


domain, or that transforms an existing domain into a new one.
