 Visual arts of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Perhaps the most influential 20th-century American contribution to world art has been a mocking playfulness, a sense that a central purpose of a new work is to join the ongoing debate over the definition of art itself.
A work of art might be a performance on stage or a hand-written manifesto; it might be a massive design cut into a Western desert or a severe arrangement of marble panels inscribed with the names of American soldiers who died in Vietnam.

 Articles - Fine art
The term has been used to designate a limited number of visual art forms, including painting, sculpture, and printmaking, and is still used by schools, institutes, and other organizations to indicate a traditional perspective on the visual arts, often implying an association with classic or academic art.
This definition tends to exclude visual art forms that could be considered craftwork or applied art, such as textiles.
That fine art is seen as being distinct from applied arts is largely the result of an issue raised in Britain by the conflict between the followers of the Arts and Crafts Movement, including William Morris, and the early modernists, including Virginia Woolf and the Bloomsbury Group.

 Art: Encyclopedia topic
In the visual arts, fine arts refers to painting, sculpture, and architecture, arts which have no practical function and are valued in terms of the visual pleasure they provide or their success in communicating ideas or feelings.
Perhaps the most concise definition is its broadest—art refers to all creative human endeavors, excluding actions directly related to survival and reproduction (reproduction: The act of making copies).
For example the work of painter Jackson Pollock (Jackson Pollock: United States artist famous for painting with a drip technique; a leader of abstract expressionism in America (1912-1956)) appears to be the result of throwing and pouring of paint on a canvas, apparently without skill.
