1. “ART”
What do you get in your mind by listening the word Art?
- Is it a Painting? Or a Sculpture? Or a decorative design?
2. The Word Arts is derived from Latin word “Ars” ( Practical Skill)
In Hindi we call it as “Kala”, in Sanskrit its “Kal” (Beautiful)
Definition:
A range of human activities in creating visuals or performing
artifacts from creators imagination or an idea is called ARTS.
3. Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up
- Picasso
But still, you can’t find even a single man made thing in this world which is made
with out the help of drawing e.g Chair which you are sitting or a house you stay.
So every thing is drawn first.
4. Art is the oldest subject of Man-Kind. Even before any civilization or paper or
language, there was art on the walls of the caves.
5. Do you know that, earlier art is not called as “kala” it is called as “Shilp”
“Any person who is not having the knowledge of Literature,
Music or Art is not more then an animal,but it just differences in horns and
tale”
- Bruhat hari (Indan Scholar, 5th century
From above statement, one thing we can understand Art is different from music
and literature, and then from here onwards Art was called Kala in India.

Nrutya Sastram by Barath muni Vishnu darmothara Puranan
which is a part of Vishnu Puranam
