I think determining art is in the eye of the beholder. What I may consider to be art may not be shared by others viewing the same thing. I think some food, when presented, is a work of art. I think the way some people landscape their gardens are works of art.
I don't think I have anything in my home that could be considered art although I've often referred to my kitchen as a work of art, it's for looking at only.
Having said all that - there is art out there that I view as crap and wouldn't give 2 cents for yet if it were to sell would sell for millions.
Well I think art is very much a subjective thing one persons masterpiece is another persons pile of crap. I've got some framed Mark Rothko prints on the walls and I dare say some people might think “why have you got that abstract crap on your walls?” But with art there are no right or wrong answers.
We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.
