It pretty much started when cavemen painted on walls. But if you are talking about contemporary art, it started around the Renaissance when artists broke away from their low societal positions in only painting church-commissioned bible scenes and began to express their individual emotions rather than just illustrating The Bible.

though it is probably not true, the tall tale behind the etymology of the word ART came from the nickname of caveman who invented it, Arthurous Glumphus, but the cavemen couldn't say his name so they called it ART, but of course this probably isn't true ART RULES!
