WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF ART EDUCATION?

Art encompasses every aspect of our lives; the clothes we wear, the buildings we live in, the drawings we see, the music we listen to, the books we read—all these would be nonexistent if it were not for the creative capacity of humans. Art is how humans have communicated, celebrated, recorded and described our lives since the beginning of time. It has always been a central part of our humanity. And still, art is very important in modern society also, we have so much we wish to record, capture and celebrate—to share with future generations. All through art.

The ultimate reason behind the importance of art in modern society is that art is primarily a way of expressing how one thinks, it’s more than just self-expression and self-communication. It allows us to escape to the refuge of our imagination, leaving behind the pressures of today’s modern world.

Being immersed in art will take away the pain because you realize that many feel the same way you feel. Creating art will help you embrace pain, helping to reassure others around you that no one is perfect.

Art is of great importance in modern society because it defines our individuals and makes us better people. “The artist is not a special kind of person; everyone is a special kind of artist.”
