The impulse to create, to realize form and order out of mere matter, is universal and perpetual. Such art can include visual arts, literature, music, dance, and other forms. Most contemporary artists understand that both our lives and our art are shaped by the shifting dynamics of many factors including race, ethnicity, class, gender, nationality and cultural differences. Art museums are institutions or buildings where objects of aesthetic value are preserved and displayed for the public.
