New tram for painting or sculpture say (3,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

art form

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sculpture say' is the definition.
(I know that art of sculpture is a art form)

'new tram for' is the wordplay.
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'tram'+'for'='tramfor'
'tramfor' with letters rearranged gives 'ART FORM'.

'painting or' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for art form that I've seen before include "Writing or painting, for example" , "acting, for example" , "A symphony, perhaps" , "Creative genre" , "novel!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
