: After all, there are definitions of art, like impressionism,
: expressionism, cubism, classicism etc. You also have different
: kinds of art like sculpture, painting, music, poetry, writing
: stories and so on.
I don't agree that these are definitions. It's just a classification,
and I guess there are controversies as to how this is actually
applicable to art.
: But the deepest meaning of art, how is that to be defined?
: Or, how do you really define if something is art or not?
: Greetings from count Torby
I don't think that art is really in the creating process,
but in the observing/experiencing process.
It's an intrinsically subjective thing, and my opinion is
that what at least one person considers to be art is art.
