answers1: Whatever is important for you is important. OTOH, if art
doesn't mean much to you, it doesn't mean art isn't valuable or
useful. Not to assume, but your comment does appear to be judgmental.
You can be sure that whatever turns you on is a turnoff to someone
else. So mind your judgments. <br>

answers2: I would say no... Arts and Humanities stand equal to
business in the way of development of lets say any country... Even
business contains " ethics " which is nothing but a developed version
of humanity and practice.. things such as motivation to employees,
creativity, innovations, etc are all important aspects of business
without which it can't stand for longer... <br>
Arts on the other hand makes us familiar to our ethics and religion or
say the truths people have realized in their lives (eg. poetry tells
us the experiences of poets) .. and these truths are somewhere or the
other utilized in day to day activities of business(some might not
even realize this but it happens)... a good example is the
relationship between employees and entrepreneur of the same
business... A good entrepreneur has the art to handle his employees
and take out maximum work from them... This art he learns via
socializing himself with them(or people similar to them) and from the
lessons he learned through out his life(by reading articles, novels
and by meeting different types of people).... <br>
<br>
so for the conclusion i can tell u that yes both of them are
important... metaphorically our culture, arts, humanities, etc are the
base of the lighthouse... without the help of lighthouse(business) the
ships(people) won't be able to reach the port( their goals) on time...
and to build this lighthouse we need a base i.e. of course our
ethics...
answers3: I totally agree with Miliue. If there weren't art, etc.,
this world would be pretty boring!
answers4: People create art to find meaning. <br>
<br>
Arts and humanities teach us how to be human, how to reflect on life
and ourselves, and how to weigh what is important, how to be in the
world. Every culture has its literature and art that shows how and
why, teaches life lessons and ethics, and allows someone to step out
of their lives and imagine life in other ways. <br>
<br>
Imagine trying to innovate without some wonder and daydreams, those
leaps of logic and art that a spreadsheet or bottom-line will not
provide. <br>
<br>
Does one go to a cleaner or a library for enlightenment, do you visit
a museum or a grocery store to see great art, can you capture the
emotion and beauty of music at your car dealership; maybe, but
probably not. Art is a mirror. Business is business. The Soviet system
showed what happens when art and beauty are excised from life...people
rebelled and craved art, hiding it, sharing it even as it was
outlawed, risking their lives to have it. <br>
<br>
Without art and literature we'd have a bleak and hollow world.
answers5: I agree, Arts and Humanities is pretty useless during an
economical crisis. <br>
As a matter of fact, Arts and Humanities has never been useful except
for drawing certain plants, body systems...etc.
answers6: No simply because humanities is about persons and their
interest, and they are all in some sort of business or educational
pursues, while Business is vital, even courses I took after my degree
of Liberal Arts, the Executive Secretarial courses have been pulling
me through 7 years now, 4 of which I'm alone and knew nothing about
bills, and other business strata, on a personal level.
answers7: Arts and Humanities are not merely for creating pictures.
These subjects often help us develop the capacity for lateral thought,
which is increasingly important. In fact, recent theorists have
hypothesised that cognitive flexibility, inventiveness, and other
traits associated with lateral thinking, are essential to adapt to
rapidly changing global forces. A scholarly paper has also written
explicitly with this in mind, called 'Solving business problems using
a lateral thinking approach'. <br>
<br>
Studies in Visual Arts in particular, are also crucial to understand
the limitless depths of Visual Language in our contemporary society,
as very few students develop this ability without formal tuition. Such
knowledge helps inform our decisions, and also helps create effective
advertising. <br>
<br>
Suffice to say, Business would not be the same without studies in
Humanities, as they encourage lateral thinking and critical thinking,
which are both required for effective performance in both business (as
discussed earlier) and tertiary studies.
answers8: Really - you've got a good discussion going, but no one else
seems to realize you've asked the same question at least three times,
with three great answer threads
answers9: Riiiiight. Like Bernie Madoff is the greatest humanitarian
who ever lived. Like Lehman Brothers is responsible for creating
millions of jobs and raising the living standard of millions of poor
people. <br>
<br>
What kind of drugs are you on, anyway?
answers10: Arts & Humanities are part of every business and business
is a part of arts & humanities. This is like comparing a nose with a
foot. They are both part of the body but obviously have different
functions. You can't appreciate a work of art unless you know about
it. marketing your art work or theory is essential if you want people
to know about it or to impact society & culture. When a business is
created it is always solving a problem or facilitating solving a
problem. Art, humanities and business work hand in hand.
