Characteristics of the Different Art Forms

What to know
VISUAL ARTS

1|Page
 Visual art can be defined as a form of art that uses any
medium to represent the artist’s idea, emotion and
imagination. Visual art, like paintings, sculptures and
architecture have evolved with time and different periods
saw the emergence of different art movements.

THEATER ARTS
Theatre  or  theater  is a collaborative form of  performing
art  that uses live performers, typically  actors or actresses,
to present the experience of a real or imagined event before
a live audience in a specific place, often a stage. The
performers may communicate this experience to the
audience through combinations of gesture, speech,
song, music, and dance.

MUSIC
Music  is an art form, and  cultural activity, whose
medium  is sound. General definitions of music  include
common elements such as  pitch (which governs
melody  and  harmony),  rhythm (and its associated
concepts  tempo,  meter, and articulation), dynamics 
(loudness and softness), and the sonic qualities
of timbre and texture (which are sometimes termed the
"color" of a musical sound). Different styles or types of music may emphasize,
de-emphasize or omit some of these elements. Music is performed with a vast
range of instruments and vocal techniques ranging from singing to rapping;
there are solely instrumental pieces, solely vocal pieces (such as songs without
instrumental accompaniment) and pieces that combine singing and
instruments. 

DANCE

Dance is a performing art  form consisting of

purposefully selected sequences of human movement.
This movement has aesthetic and symbolic value, and
is acknowledged as dance by performers and observers
within a particular culture. Dance can be categorized
and described by its choreography, by its repertoire of
movements, or by its historical period or place of origin.

CREATIVE WRITING
Creative writing  is any writing that goes
outside the bounds of normal  professional,
journalistic,  academic, or  technical  forms of
literature, typically identified by an emphasis
on narrative craft, character development, and
the use of literary tropes or with various
traditions of poetry and poetics. Due to the
looseness of the definition, it is possible for
writing such as feature stories to be considered
creative writing, even though they fall under

 journalism, because the content of features is specifically focused on narrative
and character development. Both fictional and non-fictional works fall into this
category, including such forms as novels, biographies, short stories, and poems.
In the academic setting, creative writing is typically separated into fiction
and poetry classes, with a focus on writing in an original style, as opposed to
imitating pre-existing genres such as crime or horror. Writing for the screen and
stage—screenwriting and playwriting—are often taught separately, but fit under
the creative writing category as well.
Creative writing can technically be considered any writing of 
original composition. In this sense, creative writing is a more contemporary
and process-oriented name for what has been traditionally called literature,
including the variety of its genres.

MEDIA ARTS
New media art refers to artworks created
with new media  technologies, including  digital
art, computer graphics, computer animation, virtual
art, Internet art,  interactive art, sound art,  video
games, computer robotics, 3D printing, cyborg
art and art as biotechnology. New media art often
involves interaction between artist and observer or
between observers and the artwork, which responds
to them. Yet, as several theorists and curators have noted, such forms of
interaction, social exchange, participation, and transformation do not
distinguish new media art but rather serve as a common ground that has
parallels in other strands of contemporary art practice. Such insights
emphasize the forms of cultural practice that arise concurrently with emerging
technological platforms, and question the focus on technological media, per se.
