Hey lil_hxc_c...,

Someone will say Adam, or Eve, or God. But I think it was Grog, a caveman, he drew on the walls and we call it art, he called it a map.

Art was not "invented" by conventional means, but it (probably) started on the walls of caves and on tools that prehistoric people used. Slowly art developed into what it is today.
In other words, art wasn't really invented... it has just (almost) always been a part of human life.

Art has been in existence ever since people lived in caves. Art was not invented, it has alway been a form of expression, since the first man scratched a picture of something he saw on a cave wall. It predates History.

Art is both a process and the output of that process. We make art though an experience both mental and physical, and we stare at the output letting our minds wander even further, so we make even more. How did this first happen? Humans across the globe universally pursue art making, art collecting, and art selling and no one can say where or when it began, or even why.

There is a blurry line between art and primitive language which used pictograms to communicate thoughts and ideas. In fact, letters were once pictograms that have evolved to modern alphabets. When storytelling became art is hard to say, and there are those who would argue that cave paintings are really cave writings. Picture making became art when someone first recognized the difference between language of word and language of pictures.

Art has been invented since the beginning of mankind.There are ancient drawings on caves thought to be inhabited by cave dwellers in almost every country.

as long we talk about human existance we talk about art maikng as well. The oldest paintings we know today are about 20 000 years old, found on the wall of caves in Spain and France, but they are on sucha high level, that it is more than certain that humans made art much ebefore that.

No one really invented art... first creatures to be known to use it was caveman, but it wasn't art at the time... it was how they communicated.

i think it was the cavemen in 15,000 bc. They used charcoal dirt. It is known as ancient art. Some of these paintings can be found in africa, in places such as egypt,south america and europe etc. i think it was more of a means of communication that developed into art.
