Propaganda
For some, if not most, visual art is the easiest form of propaganda to produce; however, some people are more talented with jigs, jingles, and things like that (which still would fall under the category of the Arts). The senses of perception can… sense… each form of art, such as seeing a visual or performance art, smelling or tasting a delicious propaganda-ey cake, listening to a national anthem, and touching the spokes-bunny of a twisted yet beloved corporation; these examples are all symbols, and these symbols, like most, are art.
Besides, how could you do something regarding History without using Literature as an art? Or perhaps mathematics, which isn’t very artsy, but the only example of propaganda regarding numbers I can think of is that 2 + 2 = 5, from 1984. I guess people would simply rather paint or sing than do math! Sorry, Gully :C

I would rather sing than do math most of the time, too!
