Cultural Tip
In German, 'Kunst' usually refers to visual arts (painting, sculpture, photography) but can also cover music, theater, and dance. When speaking about a specific type, add the qualifier, e.g., 'moderne Kunst' (modern art). The verb 'mögen' is neutral; if you feel a stronger emotion, switch to 'lieben' (to love).
