Art is one of the constructs that man developed to support values that exist apart from what he considered necessary for his physical survival or comfort—that is, those objects or experiences that produce as aesthetic response.

These qualities determine the aesthetic characteristics of an object or experience and, when recognized, cause the aesthetic reaction.
