"To distinguish between entertainment and art is seemingly contradictory, because one cannot exist without the other. What is art without entertainment? It is common practice for people to visit the museum and gaze at various works of art for fun, using art for entertainment. Once within the museum patrons can browse from gallery to gallery and entertain themselves by inspecting paintings individually. Every painting is visually stimulating and offers us a form of entertainment. People use the practice of looking, along with the rest of the senses, to perceive entertainment. The duration of their gaze is directly proportional to how exciting they find the sensory stimuli. If the entertainment value of the image is high, the painting will capture the viewer's gaze, and the reverse is also true." "What is entertainment without art? Besides entertaining yourself with blades of grass or bubbles, every form of entertainment is a creative artistic expression of the producer, reflecting his/her personal beliefs, intentions and distinctive style. That is precisely why we are entertained; " |

Would have to choose Entertainment, maybe art & entertainment go together but to me not all art is entertaining, it's all a question of taste.

Music, movies, live concerts, broadway shows are all forms of art. Also entertainment.

Let's define entertainment first and see if we can settle this debate.
One definition of entertainment is "Something that amuses, pleases, or diverts, especially a performance or show." I'd say art and entertainment are too closely intertwined to separate. |

"Art" can and does entertain me. "entertainment" amuses me but does nothing to stimulate me either in an intellectual or cultural way...be seeing you

Since you think they're separate, what do you consider entertainment to be? |

Could be you need to find another form of entertainment. I don't enjoy mindless entertainment, if it doesn't "stimulate me either in an intellectual or cultural way", I'm not interested in wasting time on it. (Now I'm trying to see where 4 hours of golf fits in to this conversation.)
