interestingly enough i was at a very large museum in Europe the other day and each time i am in a museum, i find myself asking "what is art". For example, there are endless examples like the Picasso Museum in Paris... i personally dont feel that something any 3 year old can pound out during commercial break while watching Barney is "art".
the bigger thing that drives me nuts is the wealth of meaning, depth and expression people would find in a canvas that i accidentally drove over with my car, then wiped my ass with. it could spawn centuries of debate about my brilliance, my ability to capture this element and that... the bold statements i made about culture, society and how maybe it was all a suggestive statement about the turmoil of years of civil war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the fall of the Soviet Union... when really i just needed some toilet paper.
when i become Supreme Dictator and Traffic Master of the Planet, my "to do" list includes defining "art" for the masses.
