What do you think of art……?
Art is the product or process of deliberately arranging items (often with symbolic significance) in a way that influences and affects one or more of the senses, emotions, and intellect. It encompasses a diverse range of human activities, creations, and modes of expression, including music, literature, film, photography, sculpture, and paintings. The meaning of art is explored in a branch of philosophy known as aesthetics, and even disciplines such as history and psychology analyze its relationship with humans and generations.
Traditionally, the term art was used to refer to any skill or mastery. This conception changed during the Romantic period, when art came to be seen as “a special faculty of the human mind to be classified with religion and science”. Generally, art is made with the intention of stimulating thoughts and emotions.

I think it plays a role in a countries traditions and heritage, we have had a decline in recent years of American Hero’s in our parks and landmarks, they have been replaced with shapeless, meaningless figures ( some call it modern art), but it also removes the counties traditions and hero’s from the eyes of our youth, but it is by design, see number 23 below
