The benefits of Arts and Culture
Is art useful?
Neurosciences teach us that art stimulates intimate and deep emotions but also that their practice develops the cerebral capacities of children. Beyond that, it first satisfies an aesthetic need by providing disinterested satisfaction, the opposite of primary needs.
What is culture and art?
they refer to all activities related to the creation, production, distribution or consumption in the field of music, theater, dance, visual arts or radio and television programs.
What is art and culture?
Culture is the relationship to the thing. Let me explain. Art is an archaic human activity, which consists in formulating (putting into form) a symbolic discourse using the most diverse materials (words, images, sounds, movements, etc.)
What are the 7 arts?
The classification of the seven arts: 1st: architecture; 2nd: sculpture; 3rd: visual arts (painting, drawing, etc.); 4th: music; 5th: literature (poetry or dramaturgy); 6th: performing arts (theatre, dance, mime, circus, humour); 7th: cinema;
What is the difference between art and culture?
Art is an archaic human activity, which consists in formulating (putting into form) a symbolic discourse using the most diverse materials (words, images, sounds, movements, etc.) Culture is something else: it is not in no way the production of languages or the deepening of forms, but indicates the relationship that each of us can maintain (or not) with these symbolic forms.
Our objectives
The Ministry of Arts and Culture intends to focus on the growth
while contributing a substantial part to the creation of decent jobs, allowing the various actors and stakeholders in the art and culture sub-sector to enjoy their civic rights and fulfill their duties while being major players in the economy.
Our Projects
Develop a real cultural industry
oriented towards the qualitative and quantitative improvement of the supply of cultural goods and services, with a view to their consumption by nationals and the densification of the consumption of cultural goods by foreigners.
For community liberalism (H.E. Paul BIYA, 1987, 114).
« Our project is [ ... ] to move from an unconsciously lived culture to a freely thought-out culture. My conviction is that a cultural policy, courageous and consistent, is the lever of (the) fruitful political culture that I intend to promote to establish Cameroonian democracy.»
