You can have lovely handwriting so in a way it is an art of passion for writing! Most people just don't think about it and carry with their lives!
I think Muslims perfected geometry and geometric art at the same time that they did not allow people or animals in their art.
Architecture is an art because it contains shapes and sizes that make the buildings look like a piece of art. Buildings with arches and columns tend to be very beautiful. Architecture can be very beautiful, but sometimes it isn't. Some buildings don't contain beautiful shapes and sizes. Some are rusty and plain. Architecture is very beautiful, and is almost like a tall piece of art that you can find in cities and in ancient ruins!
A great debate : Must art be useful or beautiful ? Everyone has his own answer. The aim of art is not to be utilitarian. But some artworks can be.
It depends on the Art form. Since Islam prohibits most forms of painting and sculpture, the art in these fields was not enhanced by Muslims. However, Muslims contributed quite strongly to architecture, perfecting domes and minarets, mosaic-ed water fountains, lattice-work, and stone carving. Muslims also perfected the art of calligraphy using Qur'anic verses to "sketch" animals, people, and scenery. Probably the greatest artistic contribution of the Muslims was poetry and music. The Rubiyat of Omar Khayyam are among the greatest poetic works in the world. Muslims were responsible for the development of the guitar, the zither, and the flute, among many other musical instruments. They also began to create Music Theory which demonstrates how different notes can be played together harmoniously or dis-harmoniously.
The art of beautiful handwriting is called Calligraphy.The word Calligraphy comes from the Greek words kallos (beauty) and graphẽ (writing).It is also referred to as the "art of fancy lettering".
