Art:
ART: something that is created with imagination and skill and that is beautiful or that expresses important ideas or feelings. a piece of modern/contemporary art.
The word “art” is derived from the Latin ars, which originally meant “skill” or “craft.” These meanings are still primary in other English words derived from ars, such as “artifact” (a thing made by human skill) and “artisan” (a person skilled at making things).
Art is the expression of ideas and emotions through a physical medium, like painting, sculpture, film, dance, writing, photography, or theater. If you love the creative process, maybe you'll devote your life to art.
According to Aristotle, art is a form of imitation. He defined imitation as the "representation of nature in the medium of human actions." In other words, he believed that artists could capture the beauty of the world around them through the use of their creative skills.
According to Plato , art is false knowledge of reality. An artist's imitation can deceive common people, not the philosopher, who knows the essence of reality or the real being of things.
Aesthetic: of or relating to beauty or what is beautiful.
In a general sense, an aesthetic response refers to the reaction a person has to an object (e. g., product) based on his or her perception of the object (Berlyne 1974). The reaction is based on the qualities and configurality of the physical features (i. e., design) of the object (product).
