Art is the expression of a concept or idea through some form of medium. What annoys me is when people try to be artsy while defining art.
I think YouTube Poop is art.
[QUOTE=Rammaster;31188467]I think YouTube Poop is art.[/QUOTE] It's contemporary dadaism
Anything that anyone in the world believes is art, is art.

[QUOTE=CatFodder;31189298]Anything that anyone in the world believes is art, is art.[/QUOTE] Way to read the title
[QUOTE=Zarjk;31186193]Art is something that I like just a bit, but I've never been good at drawing, so I always go back to poetry.[/QUOTE] Poetry is art, too, by all technical means that I used in the beginning of the thread. Art encompasses not only visual artwork, but also music, literature, and other forms of culture that you can think of. I laid out a framework in the OP that covered loosely what is art in a technical sense (artwork, music, literature, visual, etc.), but the greater meaning and definition is meant to be found by everyone individually.
This is art.
Art is something beautiful and as such cannot be easily described. I would also call it a way to express your self beyond what you can say.
For me, art is nice decoration in my room.
IMO, art's anything that pleases the senses or mind in an idiosyncratic way.

Something that holds a mirror to the universe and can be interpreted. Modern 'art' is not art.
[QUOTE=Tacosheller;31194595]Something that holds a mirror to the universe and can be interpreted. Modern 'art' is not art.[/QUOTE] Modern art can be interpreted. Just because you (and I) dislike modern art in general does not mean it isn't art. I still have no idea what the whole "This snowpile outside of a school is now my piece of modern art" in Finland was all about. But I'm sure he had his reasons and thoughts around it, no matter how retarded.
Art defines the craftsmanship, as opposed to the craft itself
Video games can be art. Yes they can. [img]http://videotekavizion.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/the-void-pc.jpg[/img] [editline]19th July 2011[/editline] Yes they certainly can [img]http://killerpuppies.com/download-pathologic-pc-game.jpg[/img]
Definition limits art.

Art is an expression of your real identity. It shows off what you really are.
[QUOTE=Kindlinho;31196689]Art is an expression of your real identity. It shows off what you really are.[/QUOTE] I beg to differ

[QUOTE=coco911231;31197889]Are you, by any chance, a fan of steampunk?[/QUOTE] I don't particularly care for it
a way of showing things you feel are worth expressing [editline]19th July 2011[/editline] or, in the modern sense "LOOK AT ME AND GIVE ME ATTENTION AND MONEY"
A way of communicating ideas. I my eyes, its the best way to communicate. Art is capable of explaining things that simple conversation is incapable of.
Art is, by my definition, anything that evokes emotion.

I am art.
Art is perfection, which is exactly why I could never be an artist.
