The artistic expressions are creative expressions, by using various resources, allow people to showcase their ideas, emotions and perceptions about the outside world.
Art and human beings have historically been linked; for this reason art is understood as a social need.
Thanks to this type of manifestation, the artists have an open space to express, explicitly or allegorically, the fruit of their imagination and their point of view on the environment that surrounds them.
The expression of each artist, in turn, is different depending on their personal experiences, concerns, fears, sensitivity and capacity for expression.
Importance
Artistic manifestations are capable of emitting messages full of content through alternative mechanisms to the word, such as painting, color, dance or music.
This is its importance, since the management of artistic resources makes the free expression of ideas possible through the creativity and subjectivity of artists.
The artistic manifestation is successful when the artist manages to convey his message to the admirers of his work. Therefore, these representations are understood as a means of communication.
Types
Artistic manifestations are basically classified into four genres: literature, music, body expressions and plastic arts.
1- Literature
Literature is a merely verbal artistic expression, which encompasses different subgenres to its credit, such as: narrative, essays, poetry and theater.
Literature is understood as a creative way to communicate through rhetoric, grammar, and poetry.
2- Music
Music is an art characterized by the emission of sounds through the principles of melody, rhythm and harmony.
These sounds can be generated not only with the human voice, but also through the use of musical instruments.
One of the most unique characteristics of music is how pleasant it is to listen to it, which makes music a means of communication whose effectiveness depends on the sensitivity of the receiver.
3- Body or show expressions
Dance is a highly aesthetic means of corporal expression, based on the practice of vigorous and harmonious movements. The use of music as a background for dance is optional.
Cinema is also in this category. The latter was considered one of the seven fine arts in the 20th century, thanks to its popularity as a means of artistic expression worldwide.
4- Plastic arts
This category includes painting, architecture, and sculpture.
Painting is widely recognized for being a purely visual artistic expression, which, through the use of color, shapes, textures and strokes, is capable of transmitting a message with high aesthetic and emotional content.
In the case of architecture, this is understood as an artistic expression thanks to the creativity it deserves to design buildings that are harmonious with the space in which they are immersed.
Sculpture is an artistic expression that consists of modeling, carving or sculpting materials such as stone, metal, clay, porcelain, clay, concrete or wood, in order to create three-dimensional works.
