Introduction Quote/story: Art influences society because art involves everything - painting, sculpture, performance arts, music, fashion design - every facet of our lives is art. Even nature is art, even the design of our computers is art. TV programs can also be arts, so are drama and the opera- they're all performing arts. Even the way the news is covered these days seem to be 'artsy'. WE may be individuals but we have a collective consciousness which makes us like one art from another. For instance, if we love painting our nails, that is art. If we love crummy reality shoes and tele - dramas, that's art. Society is influenced by art in more subtle ways than we actually realize it. Art is THERE, part of our everyday lives whether we appreciate it or not. Thus, it molds our values and makes or breaks our society. (http://www.ask.com/question/how-does-art-influence-society)
