The Arts have always been involved in the world‚ but there has always been someone behind the scenes that censors what is shown. Lately‚ people believe that more is shown than necessary. It has seemed in the past that nude portraits have been acceptable‚ but now if that was shown in‚ say‚ a public school people would be offended. “No one has come up with a workable definition of art that can universally separate garbage like Karen Finley ’s body goo from Michelangelo ’s David.”(Shapiro) Art is truly

that artists during the renaissance matured‚ from mere craftsman into creative intellectuals‚ and the process of producing art grew into a philosophical endeavor. Before these statements are explored further‚ perhaps the literal meaning behind these words should be investigated. What is the difference between a craftsman and a creative intellectual‚ art as technique and art as philosophy? Are these ideas and modes mutually exclusive?

This type of art appears abnormal to modern people‚ mostly because they had very little knowledge about human anatomy and mathematics (Brown). The figures
