Aristotle's Metaphysics in his book speaks about the levels or stages of knowledge, namely, sensation, memory, experience, universal concept, art and science. Regarding the former, the author talks about a kind of qualitative movement or alteration of the soul, through which the subject treats the object without appreciably assimilate its matter. In the subsequent drafting of each of the terms mentioned above, it happens that on reaching the Experience – time or degree of shared knowledge in a wide range between species of the animal kingdom, there is a jump or qualitative change is given by abstraction of a universal concept. It Here, where art is born, as the achievement of many experiences which allow a single universal concept and similar things.

" Therefore, art is no doubt over the experience and the artists are wiser than the experts.
