Question:

What differentiates art from entertainment?

Is there a difference? Is art simply the entertainment of the elites? Does art have more to say? If so, what?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

Art has depth and evokes prolonged thought and extended stimulation.
Entertainment stimulates in the present moment, which then fades as the entertainment wains..........

This view would vary widely from person to person because both are highly subjective............
