Q. 3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of art 
education? 
Answer:
There are a number of advantages of art education. In fact, 
many studies suggest that art education has many social and academic 
benefits to students as it promotes self-directed learning and sharpens 
creative problem-solving skills and critical thinking. The arts provide 
challenges for learners at all levels by connecting students with their 

---

own culture as well as with the rest of the world. Studies also suggest 
that Integrating art education with other disciplines helps reach the 
students who otherwise wouldn’t feel “engaged” and interested in class 
works. 
However, there are some disadvantages to art education as well. 
Learning art can be time-consuming and sometimes can take “decade” 
to succeed in the “business” of art. Another major disadvantage of art is, 
people, in general, don’t exactly understand the idea of “art”, and 
therefore, don’t exactly learn to “appreciate” art, whether it is drama, 
painting, or music, which can be really depressing and de-motivating for 
the aspiring artists. 
Q. 4. Why do you think some people enjoy looking at paintings 
and sculptures and others do not? 
Answer:
The fact, that some people enjoy looking at paintings and 
sculptures while others don’t, can be attributed primarily, in my opinion, 
to how much “art education” one has received. Besides, this is also an 
issue of “sensibility” and how emotionally we get triggered by certain 
artworks. In fact, there is a theory which explains that because colours, 
shapes, sounds and thoughts are all waves form, and the more we are 
sensitive to these kinds of waves, the better we can understand an 
emotional message, considering that a piece of painting or sculpture 
essentially is an expression of an emotion, or transmit it. Besides, 
another “theory” suggests that most “visually intelligent” people love art 
while people who cannot concentrate upon a single detail for more than 
10 seconds cannot enjoy art.
