everything has some purpose…
let us discuss the purpose of arts :Painting, Photography, Sculpture, Architecture, Industrial design and Computer generated Art.
let me start:
Art provides a way to experience one’s self.
Art provide a means to express the imagination in non-grammatic ways that are not tied to the formality of spoken or written language.
Art, at its simplest, is a form of communication. . Emotions, moods and feelings are also communicated through art.
Art may seek to bring about a particular emotion or mood, for the purpose of relaxing or entertaining the viewer
Art is also used by art therapists, psychotherapists and clinical psychologists as art therapy. The Diagnostic Drawing Series, for example, is used to determine the personality and emotional functioning of a patient. The end product is not the principal goal in this case, but rather a process of healing, through creative acts, is sought. The resultant piece of artwork may also offer insight into the troubles experienced by the subject and may suggest suitable approaches to be used in more conventional forms of psychiatric therapy.
art may seek to question aspects of society without any specific political goal. In this case, the function of art may be simply to criticize some aspect of society.
Art is often utilized as a form of propaganda, and thus can be used to subtly influence popular conceptions or mood. In a similar way, art that tries to sell a product also influences mood and emotion. In both cases, the purpose of art here is to subtly manipulate the viewer into a particular emotional or psychological response toward a particular idea or object
