Region: GLOBAL
Background (Preamble):
From 1912 to 1948, art competitions divided into five categories (sculpture, music, architecture, painting, and literature) made up a portion of the Olympics. Medals were awarded for works inspired by sports.
Unfortunately, artists were thought to be professionals, while athletes were required to be amateurs, so they(the art competitions) were removed from the competition.
