Conceptual Art & Perceptual Art

What is Conceptual Art?
Based on my research conceptual art actually is an art in which the concepts or idea involved in the work take precedence over traditional aesthetic and material concerns. It's more based on force thinking art. This art with particular emphasis on process behavior and state of things, and often referred to as the state arts.Conceptual art is an art in which the concept and idea involved in the work rather than focus on aesthetic and material concerns. It can also call installation art.

What is Perceptual Art?
Based on my research, perceptual art actually is a bit similar with perceptive concept. It's use perspective to make graphic look more 3D and movement.It may be interpreted as the engagement of multi-sensory experiential stimuli combined with the multiplicity of interpretive meanings on the part of an observer. Sometimes, the role of observer is obscured as members of the public may unwittingly or unknowingly be participants in the creation of the artwork itself. It is very often what is generally called "performance art."

Below is the example of the Perceptual Art.
