usually consists of four important elements: time, where the performance
took place, the
performer's or performer's body, and a relationship between the audience
and the performer(s)
(Moma Learning. n.d.). The fact that performance art is live makes it
intangible, which means it
cannot be bought or traded as a commodity, unlike the previously
discussed art expressions.
Theater - Theater uses live performers to present accounts or imaginary events before a live
audience.
Theater art performances usually follow a script, though they should not be confused

judgment. In
the process, Kant responded to the age-old question of how Immanuel Kant
and in what sense
can a judgment of beauty, which ordinarily is considered to be a subjective
feeling, be considered
objective or universal
-Kant mentioned that judgment of beauty, and therefore, art, is innately
autonomous from
specific interests. It is the form of art that is adjudged by one who perceives art to
be beautiful or
more so, sublime. Therefore, even aesthetic judgment for Kant is a cognitive
activity.

is saying that the said
painting has induced a particular feeling of satisfaction from him and that
he expects the painting
to rouse the same feeling from anyone.

emotions that the artist
previously experienced.

innermost feelings and
thoughts, art is given a unique opportunity to serve as a mechanism for social unity.

not made by man. Not
