if anybody knows... which was the first art to be developed by humans? music? painting? ... what do you think? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cave paintings i suppose. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sound. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think body art was the first form of art. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drawings in the sand? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
excatly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
whatever, what is everything, plato, bullshit, no more messages exactly |

i think a better question would be.. when have humans started expressing themselves in ways other than the primal needs such as hunger, reproduction and surviving. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i read newman's ('who's afraid of red yellow and blue') essay ' the first man was an artist' "crying out 'why am i here'" his first concern would be making art about it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
omg, so deep. so. deep. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
didnt think of that one yet, eh artboi? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a turd |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, indeed thats a better way of asking.... now fit that in a thread title. but, yes you got the point |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's such a vague concept that it's almost meaningless though.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
are you all feeling sartre-ish today? answer! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha! ...well, i think there were probably animals expressing themselves in a way that they found aesthetically pleasing before there were humans. but, i've never really read anything about that that i remember, so i have no way to back up my claims. |

when the first primitive man sketched a cock and perhaps some tits in the sand and showed it to his fellow tribemembers |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
looking down men thought: hey, intersting shape |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Life and everything related is art. Infact exsistance is art. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
birds dance to get laid- same reason man creates art. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dance is not art! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The first evedence of art is when men started to decorate their tools as a sign of ownership. Music is more dificult to track down but the consensus amoung academics was that singing and rythmic group shouting/chanting, was more than likley the first music as it appears in every culture and that it does not require any instrementation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I reckon the first art was poo-poo. When i do a poo poo I look at it and go, "wow, what a nice shape I have created". I'm sure cave men did the same. |
||||||||

sorry nacmat but this is a terrible idea for a thread. it leads to awful questions as 'what is art' when did craftmanship become art? when people found man to be important. the first paintings weren't works of art, they were assignments. later they became art. it's impossible to say 'that day in history is when art began' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, its a good idea for a thread. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no it's not. nobody has an answer. nobody will ever have one. it's pointless. a good idea for a thread is: the last art to appear? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think its a great thread to start with. For me i think the answer to nacmat's question "which was the first art to be developed by humans" is: sex. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

The first art to appear, was architecture. Before men thought about other forms, they had to 1) find food and 2) find a shelter. Since finding food ain't much of an art, finding a shelter means to create/model/change objects found on our planet earth to suit their needs. Volume, composition, textures, etc.. Therefore, the art of architecture was created first. |

aha! |

it was not intended to be a great thread... I was just talking about that with my girlfriend the other day, so I htought I would talk about it here, as it lead us to good discussion (me and her)... and to be honest I think some interesting things were said here too but maybe its pointless as you say... well, no big deal |

hello nacmat,yes its a good topic,for me i think any kind of cave paintings are the original arts-plus rob and sean didnt invent music till the 1980s |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
LOL nice to see you I would have loved to see oyur paintings in cave!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
her and i.. maybe you should tell us other things you guys talk about.. *cough cough* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
art is as much if not more dependant on our perception of it as it is on the medium... i'd guess that art has been around for as long as there has been consciousness, in fact, maybe art is what constitutes consciousness... i dunno, just a thought, anyhow... |

i saw a tv programme not long back where they showed the first ever piece or recorded 'art'. it was just simple criss cross lines carved in a stone, it was reckoned to be about 60000 years old i think they said, though i could be way off, my memory ain't too good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but men, first sang or made some rythm, lets say to intimidate or celebrate... oor first painted some thing in their bodies or objects to express propertie? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but that's not art. |
||||||||
|

the first created sexual position would be the first work of art wouldnt it? You can fuck regardless of how advanced you are. Fucking comes first. |
||||||||

|
|
id said the first form of abstractness and expressing the individuality of the human being was writing... but i just dont know... was tribal rythms or cave painting art? i dont think so... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dunno about that man... written language is a lot less intuitive than representational art... the earliest texts are definitely precluded by the spoken folk-tales they were adapted from... that said, in terms of what we consider art (medium-wise... and again, i don't really know if i agree with that) now, storytelling certainly may have been among the first |

BOTH |

Some fake nude celeb shots I've seen might've been among the first. |
