What is art?

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.
Art is knowing which ones to keep.
::: Scott Adams ::: Art Quotes


Arts of the United States is described by GALILEO as "a joint project between the Lamar Dodd Art School, University of Georgia and the University of Georgia and Yale University Libraries, contains over 4000 images of works important to the study of the history of art in the United States. The pieces, dating from the 17th century through the 20th, include architecture, decorative arts, painting, sculpture, graphic arts, photography, and stage and costume design as well as Native American art and artifacts. Although the majority of artists represented in the database are American, significant works created by non-native artists while in the United States are included."

Look and see what is thought of as art!
