Best Answer

We don't know. And it depends on what you define as "art".

If "art" is any general painting, then the Neanderthal cave men were the first artists, painting pictures on cave walls to tell a story.

If "art" is a masterpiece, then we truly do not know, because artists have existed for thousands of years, back into the times of the Ancients. Many artworks have also been lost in time.
