Some guy was fucking around in the sand and he realized that when he fell it made a shape similar to that of a person. He was so impressed he went to tell his fellow tribe about his exploit, they came and looked and were like "wtf this is stupid" and he said "You can't judge this it's art" and that's why it exists today.

are you kidding me
art is something where anyone with half a mind can express their deepest feelings with out the restrictions of our language which makes things very difficult to describe
art can be windows to inner world with in a person that no one would otherwise see
i think that you are the waste of time actaully
i think i will go paint now

"Art for art's sake."

Humans constantly search for things that are aesthetically pleasing.  They intrigue us, describe us, make us feel good, connected.  All these things, in my opinion, help mankind.

Hmmm... I think art exists to demonstrate ones ability to communicate, be creative and show off worksmanship. It really doesn't have a true purpose, and I guess it doesn't really help us advance us into a technologically-based future, but hey, it looks pretty damn cool.

Creating useless things sets us apart from other animals, I've always prided myself on that. Plus, if art is a waste of resources, then so is war, and everything else. If it isn't required, then it must be a waste, hm?

Art does better humans. Art has a way of manipulating our emotions. Some art can make you happy, sad, nostalgic, calm, and even excited.  Art stimulates the mind and makes us think. Whether subconscious or conscious.

Art exists because we are intelligent beings who long for something more than the functional. But doesn't art serve a purpose? I have heard many people tell me that when they are depressed they write poetry, play guitar, paint. Art is a therapetic procedure.

It gvies an artist a feeling of accomplishment, a purpose. We long for appreciation from others. Whether it is building beautiful architecture or painting a beautiful picture, both serve as proof of their brilliance in solid proof.
