A beautiful painting, a piece of fine China, or a sparkling gem: whatever purpose they may serve, they are all artistic works. Art always has something to offer -- pleasure, function, or a message. It can inspire people to create, to think, and to develop. People go to museums not just to appreciate art, but also to learn history. With the knowledge people gain from discovering art, they can provide a better future for humankind. Some arts have artistically abstract values, humanistic values and monetary value; however, all contain some elements that people appreciate. By Sarah Zhu |
