Art has been around for as long as people have existed, maybe even longer. In Africa, traditional forms of art like pottery, basket weaving, carving, storytelling, music, and beadwork were made entirely by hand. This kind of original, handmade creativity is being celebrated today, on World Art Day, which also happens to be Leonardo da Vinci's birthday.
The global theme this year is 'A Garden of Expression: Cultivating Community Through Art.' But the International Association of Art has chosen its theme: 'Do No Algorithm', highlighting that Artificial Intelligence (AI) cannot replace real human creativity.
