The arts
The arts is a broad subdivision of
culture, composed of many expressive disciplines. In modern usage, it is a term broader than "
art", which usually means the
visual arts (comprising both
fine art,
decorative art, and
crafts). The arts encompasses
visual arts,
performing arts,
language arts,
culinary arts, and
physical arts. Many artistic disciplines involve aspects of the various arts, so the definitions of these terms overlap to some degree.
