Line 4:
Broadly speaking, the word "art" is commonly applied to works from various media that are believed to have lasting worth, although this is ''extremely'' subjective. Calling a work "art" (or not) can be controversial, as it is a judgment of quality that can offend both sides of the argument. There are some who believe everything is art, and some who believe only a few things are art, or apply stipulative definitions, like "art is something that makes you ''feel''." When people talk about "[[True Art]]," this is generally what they're thinking of.
"Art" is also a title applied to various kinds of media. There are performance arts, such as [[Ballet]] and [[Theatre]]. [[Literature]] and [[Film]] are their own categories of art, as is [[Sequential Art]] (though it took longer to gain status as an artform and some people still believe it isn't; see the above paragraph). Whether [[Video Games]] are "art" is still a subject of controversy, as there are those who believe a game's primary focus of entertainment nullifies any artistic merit.
For a partial listing of artforms, see [[Media]]. See [[Art Tropes]] for a list of tropes relating to visual arts.
