Use for works of the fine or decorative arts when their aesthetic or conceptual nature is emphasized; when emphasis is on the works as objects, as in conservation or inventorying, use "art objects." A work of art may exist as one part of a larger object, e.g., a mural painting or a painting on a piece of furniture. When referring to the study or practice of the fine arts or the fine and decorative arts together, use "art."
