Elements and principles of art are important for several reason. First
and most importantly, a person cannot create art without utilizing at least a
few of them. Secondly, knowing what the elements and principles of art are,
it enables us to describe what an artist has done, analyse what is going on in
a particular piece and communicate our thoughts and findings using a
common language.
Arts is part of our culture. It should be given importance by the people
because art is an important part of our daily lives and can be found
everywhere.
This module will help you to appreciate the importance of elements and
principles in performing arts specifically in dancing.
