Abstract:The modern discipline of art was formed during the process from Renaissance to the end of 19th century. Its starting up ,developing and taking shape had been shaped by three factors: firstly ,according to the principle of beauty ,out of the pan-art system emerged some sub-categories of fine art ;secondly ,the producers of pan-art system developed into creators of fine arts, namely ,artists ;thirdly ,the new institutions such as academies, museums, concert halls and theatres ,appeared as places for the exhibition of artworks in the modern culture. The fine art for aesthetic sake differs itself from the pan-art, thus getting its new definition. This new concept of fine art now simplified as " art", has become a consensus in the worlds system of knowledge.
