Art is whatever you want it to be.
Totally incorrect. Art cannot, and never will be, whatever people say they want it to be. Art must derive from a source of inspiration, in which fuels creation or the making of a art, in order to be art. The work must be thoughtful, and it must be equal balanced with great conceptual headspace and the seven elements of art itself (line, color, texture, form, value, shape, space).
For what reason was the Sistine chapel commissioned?
Why did Salvador Dali paint the surreal works that he did?
What was the true meaning behind Picasso's exploration behind the human body, and why was he trying to achieve that?
What must we consider the purpose of the DADA movement?
Art must evoke emotion, and if it does not have that 'affeckt' on someone it does not mean the work is not art. Hypothetically speaking, it may just mean that the work is bad art, opposed to good art.
