A style of art, popular in Europe from the late 12th century to the early 16th century. It is also known as the International Style. Gothic art is mainly remembered in architecture. It was created by Abbot Sugert (Shu-ger). He planed to renovate the Cathedral of St. Denis, outside of Paris. Other famous gothic cathedrals include: Notre Dame, Chartres, Milan, and Pisa. The "Leaning Tower of Pisa" is actually the bell tower for that cathedral.
Gothic sculpture became more realistic, however, the forms tended to be elongated.
Gothic painting, like sculpture, had elongated forms, and was quite realistic. However, the artists failed to grasp vanishing point perspective. The most famous Gothic painter was Giotto.

Goth Music is nothing without motherfucking Bauhaus. In the beginning, there was Bauhaus, thus sayeth the high regents of dark taste. Regarding any other proposed Gothic first band, "Press the Eject and Give Me the Motherfucking sic Tape."
Goth Music can solve all of life's problems if you keep to the bad teachings of Bauhaus: Feeling stressed? Dr. Goth suggests listening to "In the Flat Field." Relationship problems? Try out a bit of ""Bela Lugosi's Dead." Feeling low about the state of the world? Ah, you need some "Ball of Confusion."

Get the Denim goth mug.A person who has fully committed themselves to the goth subculture and the lifestyle that it entails: leather, buckles, piercings, decorative contact lenses and all. Unlike passive goths, active goths can be identified as goth on-sight.
The elusive active goth can be found at your local Hot Topic. Here we see them walking with a black parasol in their victorian/steampunk casual-wear, petting their plastic ravens and black cats as they go on about the blight of inevitable death and "the man" before they congregate by the hundreds to express their individuality to their goth brethren.
