3D
3D or 3-D (usually an abbreviation of three-dimensional) may refer to:
Art
Art is a diverse range of human activities in creating visual, auditory or performing artifacts (artworks), expressing the author's imaginative or technical skill, intended to be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power. In their most general form these activities include the production of works of art, the criticism of art, the study of the history of art, and the aesthetic dissemination of art.
Game
A game is a structured form of play, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes used as an educational tool. Games are distinct from work, which is usually carried out for remuneration, and from art, which is more often an expression of aesthetic or ideological elements. However, the distinction is not clear-cut, and many games are also considered to be work (such as professional players of spectator sports or games) or art (such as jigsaw puzzles or games involving an artistic layout such as Mahjong, solitaire, or some video games).
Art
Most artists are surrealists. … always dreaming something and then they paint it.
Dong Kingman, Twenty-two Famous Painters and Illustrators Tell How They Work (1964).
Game
It should be noted that children at play are not playing about; their games should be seen as their most serious-minded activity.
Michel de Montaigne, in Essais (1580), as edited by Maurice Rat (1958), Book I, Ch. 23.
Art
The function of the modern artist was not to convey beauty, but to convey new truths.
Eric Kandel, The Age of Insight (2012)
