    its because society has YOUR FIRST ARGUMENT "our society...

    art is needed in todays society

    why is it? its because society has YOUR FIRST ARGUMENT "our society fast-paced daily lives have made the arts obsolete - WE have forgotten to observe such little things like the arts and devalued it. WE take it for granted and forgotten to appreciate it." I SAID You use "we" implying ALL of us have forgotten art. Which i do not believe. THEN YOU SAID "first off, i never said that "we" should ALL create art" Your argument is that we need to appreciate it, we have forgotten it. is that what you mean by "we take it for granted and forgotten to appreciate it." yes? I am saying that we don't need to appreciate it. We have lives, they are filled with work, or our favorite activities. Throughout life we have been introduced to art, but like you said people don't appreciate it. I see it as you are a used car salesman. You've shown the car, they said no. They want another car and they buy it, live happily ever after. Until you show up at their door saying you should have bought the other car. People don't appreciate it, that the fact, as you stated. It is their choice, its not like they have been hiden from it their whole live and you are enlighting them.They see art. They don't care. "I dont need any evidence to prove my argument." I asked for evidence that lately there is a sudden decline in Arts, and the appreciation of it. If people have never cared, there is a reason. "forgotten to simply stop for a few moments and observe - appreciate. whether it is the appreciation of nature, drawings, sculptures, the people themselves, it is all art." First of all we are here debating if ART IS NEEDED IN TODAYS SOCIETY. Not if we should appreciate it. The answer is NO art is not needed in todays society. :- )
