INTRODUCTION

Living in a world where Art is often neglected by human beings, try to ask yourself,
what makes you different from them? Most people think that all things they see represent
Art. But have you ever thought what is the meaning of Art? And behind its meaning, what
contribution does art do in one’s life and society? How will you also identify a certain thing
as art? This course is designed to help you answer these questions and make you value the
beauty that lies in every work of man.
