Visual Arts
"Visual Arts" is a modern but imprecise umbrella term for a broad category of art which includes a number of artistic disciplines from various sub-categories.
Definitions of visual art usually encompass the following:
1. Fine Arts
All fine art belongs to the general category of visual arts. These include activities such as: Drawing, Painting, Printmaking and Sculpture, along with associated activities like Graphic art, Manuscript Illumination, Book Illustration, Calligraphy and Architecture.
2. Contemporary Arts
The visual arts also include a number of modern art forms, such as: Assemblage, Collage, Mixed-media, Conceptual Art, Installation, Happenings and Performance art, along with film-based disciplines such as Photography, Video Art and Animation, or any combination thereof. This group of activities also includes high tech disciplines like computer graphics and giclee prints. Another modern visual art, is the new environmental or Land art, which also includes transitory forms like ice/snow sculpture, and (presumably) graffiti art.
3. Decorative Arts & Crafts
In addition, the general category of visual arts encompasses a number of decorative art disciplines and crafts, including: ceramics and studio pottery, mosaic art, mobiles, tapestry, glass art (including stained glass), and others.
