Art

Art is unique, new and challenging to the status quo. It's not decoration, it's something that causes change. Art can not be merely commerce, it must also be a gift. The artist creates his idea, knowing that it will spread freely without recompense. Sure, the physical manifestation of the art might sell for a million dollars, but that painting or that song is also going to be enjoyed by someone who didn't pay for it. Art is not limited to art-school or to music or even to the stage. Art is any original idea that can be a gift.
