Art and entertainment are both things that are perceived. Good art and good entertainment both produce a satisfying experience for the beholder. What is the difference?
Everyone has raised some interesting points but I still haven’t found an answer which really explains it.

Some of you have characterized art requiring a creative process but so does entertainment. Also some have said art is expression but entertainment can also be expression. Just think of comedians who express their views in often hilarious ways which offer real social commentary just like art might.

Entertainment has been associated with enjoyment. If there is no enjoyment, there is no entertainment. However, not all forms of entertainment are enjoyed by everyone just like not all forms of art are enjoyed by everyone. Even entertainment within the same genre can be both liked and disliked by different people.

The most common theme I see in your answers is that art is for thinking and entertainment is for enjoyment. I don’t think this holds up because the same thought processes that make art stimulating also makes entertainment stimulating.

Quality is a rare item these days. No better place to see that is in the entertainment industry. From the actors, to the media to the networks….in general, most of what is passed off as entertainment is trash. In the past, entertainers had distinction. Today, many are lame personalities. The media hypes the failings, instead of promoting those who make a statement. The general message they give is NEGATIVE. We are spiraling downward and continue doing so. Nothing to admire or look up to anymore. Once upon a time in America we had as much.
