Defining Art: A Cultural Bias

Korsmeyer was somewhat of a boring read, but thats not really saying much coming from me. What i came away with after reading this was that he was trying to get across the point that all cultures create art and do it in different ways varying based on their cultural backgrounds. He spends a lot of time talking about their similarities and differences. He uses examples such as the Greek and their Muses for reasons to create art. The other stuff though about tea was hard to understand. It kinda strays from the concept of art in my opinion but i guess it all comes back to the whole appreciating the small things for what they are.
